David Kidd has earned a national reputation for his painterly elegance and the sensitivity of the layered surfaces in his nature-based paintings. His mastery of media is evident in the nuanced details that characterize his work. With each piece, Kidd skillfully explores the themes of light, shadow, and movement, drawing inspiration from the play of sunlight in trees and their shadows cast on walls.

In his newest paintings, Kidd employs his distinctive technique of layering elements to create patterning suggestive of movement. His use of fine washes of color captures the fleeting effects of changing light, inviting viewers to experience a sense of evanescence.

"We are thrilled to showcase David Kidd's latest body of work", says Tony Baxter, Director of Thomas Deans Fine Art. "His paintings are a testament to his ability to evoke emotion and contemplation through his unique approach to color, texture, and design".

David Kidd's work has been admired for its ability to convey both intimacy and expansiveness, reflecting his deep connection to the landscapes that inspire him. His paintings invite viewers into a contemplative space, where the interplay of light and shadow becomes a metaphor for the passage of time and the subtleties of perception.
