David Van der Wal’s works in ink are improvisational and gestural with form and color exploring the intersection of the senses and the subconscious. "Fluidity and movement are the driving elements of my art. Vibrant color, flow, flight, sweep, undulation, repetition, cadence, rhythm … all enter into the visual images. The ink hits the paper. I give it a nudge. It runs. I chase. This dance on paper creates a kind of music for the eye."
Currently, David Van der Wal works in Nashville on various projects, including being a founding member of Americana music group, Another Morning.
