Walter Nance– A Visionary Expressionist

Their work serves as a testament to the transformative power of creativity, bridging the gap between the real and the imagined, and leaving a lasting impression on all who encounter it.

"I eat slow and ponder how my taste buds are a work of art by themselves, then I question my self, in the morning, figuring out if  I should waist my positive energy on the news.  I  continue chewing and that's that . I worry more about my taste buds and how delightful they are."

David's Journey Through Art and Expression

David's story begins in Puerto Rico, where he was born and spent his earliest years. At the age of three, his family relocated to the United States in 1983, shaping the rest of his upbringing. His creative journey started early; by the age of 16, David had already embarked on his acting career. One of his notable contributions was his appearance in the landmark documentary Paris is Burning, which captured the vibrant voguing scene of 1980s New York, shedding light on LGBTQ+ culture and resilience.

Three years ago, David embraced another artistic outlet—painting—which has become his sanctuary and medium for profound self-expression. Through his art, he navigates the depths of grief, human experiences, and the complexities of the human soul. His creative process is fueled by pain, channeling it into captivating and thought-provoking works. David feels deeply connected to humanity's trials and struggles, and this connection manifests through the powerful themes in his paintings.

David's bond with the spiritual realm adds another layer of depth to his artistry, making his work both mesmerizing and evocative. His paintings resonate with viewers, offering glimpses into the spiritual and emotional landscapes he explores. For David, painting is not only an act of creation but also a way to make sense of the world and his role within it—a vital form of catharsis.

"Everything in this world is something to behold but putting it on a canvas has the power to enlighten millions.:"
