About - David Gray

David Gray
Artiste peintre et formateur de renommée internationale
Formateur des Master Class La Nature Morte et Le Portrait

Artiste et formateur de renommée internationale, David Gray dispense un enseignement unique portant sur les écoles et techniques classiques de la peinture à l’huile. Ses sujets d’enseignements sont l’art de la nature morte et le portrait.  Ces techniques sont uniques et des plus recherchées notamment par les personnes souhaitant améliorer leurs techniques dans l’art du trompe l’œil.  

Pour la cinquième année consécutive, Atelier Nadaï a le plaisir d’organiser un nouveau Master Class avec David, au programme, de nouvelles compositions et toujours un enseignement riche et plein de promesses d’ apprentissage, de progression et de technicité.

Le style de David révèle une expression personnelle et contemporaine qui rend hommage à la tradition classique de peinture à l’huile telle qu’elle était pratiquée par les maitres anciens.  Le travail de David est empreint de plusieurs sentiments où se mêlent  ensemble la paix, la passion et la contemplation.
