David Wayne Floyd is an internationally recognized painter, muralist, colorist, and performance artist. Simply stated David is Art! From his studios in San Francisco’s urban setting and the rugged Northern California coast of Anchor Bay, David creates art steeped in fantasy, awash with brilliant colors that radiate a worldly sophistication. His works transcend the color pallet and invite the art lover into another realm. His art is a bold, authentic expression of the artist himself.
An Albuquerque native, David was influenced by the colors of nearby historic Santa Fe, New Mexico. He discovered the bright organic colors of the surrounding landscapes and traditional native art influenced his love of color and light. Growing up, he attended regional art schools and won several scholarships to study under prestigious local and internationally respected artists.
David relocated to the Bay Area in the early 80’s to pursue a career in advertising until 1990 when he began focusing full-time on his art. Over the last three decades David’s work has evolved into a multi-dimensional, multi-media art form. His works encompass canvases, murals, painted doors and furnishings. He also designs imaginative and innovative fabric applications from upholstery to draperies. Additionally he does live performance art as an actor and gender illusionist.
Like a finely conducted symphony David’s work has strength, energy and freedom. He is a life-survivor who expresses his rebirth with a paintbrush.
“It’s all about the many faces of David! Smiles the 6’5” artist. “We are many things and art gives us the opportunity to become them all through our imaginations.”
