David Gillespie

David Gillespie is a Canadian artist whose handmade, original works range from high realism in the form of landscapes and architecture, to vibrant and inspiring abstracts. Much of this artistic expression he refined while living in Nova Scotia, where keen observation and a love of the natural environment influenced his vision.

Originally trained in art restoration and conservation, David worked as a technician at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto before moving to Nova Scotia where he began his work as an artist. Since returning to his native Ontario in 1986, David has mounted solo and group exhibitions in both Ontario and the Maritimes. While he has worked extensively in oil and acrylic painting, he continues to favour serigraphy as his artistic medium.
