About the Artist"The main focus of my work is the journey that
we go on physically and emotionally. I play this out often in the
adolescent world where I feel the magnitude of what life holds for
us and demands from us is at its most potent. Anything from a close
up of a face depicting an emotion through to a snapshot of an
action, an adventure or an interaction often played out in a
nautical landscape. The sea brings with it a romance, a challenging
emotional environment. The distinct imagery from "Boys Own" comics
popular culture of their day and in their day served as moral tales
for the young. I find this imagery poignant in so many ways and a
wonderful vehicle for telling tales at what it is to be alive and to
be on the journey that is our life." David Bromley paints every day and remains thankful of his creative gift. He is admired for his dramatic use of acrylic paint and the rich texture he builds into his figurative work. Through his nostalgic "Boys Own Annual" 1930s subject matter - from pirates to lighthouses, boats to running races and boxing matches - Bromley dips into our childhood memories, conjuring up emotions and moments from our past.
