ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The Dragonfly and Bull Ant series came about as the result of a promise that David made to his father, Pro Hart, to keep his secret techniques and styles alive after he passed away. David’s interpretation of the Dragonfly and Bull Ants series may follow a similar subject and theme, but they are quite different to the images painted by his father. As an extension to his fathers technique, David uses acrylic bases for his background, and then creates a shiny, slippery finish using various oil mediums. After laying down the basic composition, he then continues to build the image using multiple layers of glazing which are applied, rubbed away, and then reapplied, allowing the image to gradually emerge like light from the darkness.
This painting is the original to the wine label used for Norman’s Wines in 2012. It is very rare for David to release such a significant painting. As a bonus, the painting will include the bottle of Norman’s Wines with this label. Very collectable indeed.

Hand-Crafted
From canvas to frame, every step is hand-crafted and expertly created
David's use of thick paint, luscious textures, and vibrant colour, are the hallmarks of his work.
David quite often uses a set colour pallet for each style of painting that he does, but still, there are no two paintings the same. All of the colours are hand-mixed to get exactly the right tone for the job. The fact that David adds the human element to mixing the colours means that no two batches will ever come out exactly alike.
Impeccable Colour
If there’s one thing David is known for, it’s his use of bold colours and thick, luscious textures that make each of his paintings so vibrant and engaging.
