BIO
|
David Ardley has spent more than twenty years developing a distinctive technique of painting with oil on aluminium. Through a combination of etched mark-making and layered oil paint, he creates luminous artworks that capture light, movement, and depth in a way unique to the metallic surface.
Inspired by the ocean and our connection to the natural world, Ardley’s paintings evoke the experience of being immersed in water and landscape. The reflective qualities of aluminium bring his subjects to life, creating works that shimmer and change as the viewer moves around them. David Ardley's paintings are held in private and corporate collections throughout New Zealand, Australia, Asia, and Europe. |
