David Lloyd Glover
David started work as a full time professional artist in 1969. His early years were as a newspaper illustrator creating 6 original pieces a week working to a daily noon deadline. Among other authors, he illustrated for Pulitzer Prize winning newspaper columnists Russell Baker of the New York Times and Nicholas Von Hoffman of the Chicago Daily News. He learned the value of a disciplined approach to his creative work that has served him well.
Glover moved away from the daily grind of newspaper work to excel in the advertising agency business. After years of creating award-winning campaigns the lure of the artist’s studio beckoned once more. This time he turned to mastering the difficult medium of translucent watercolors using the classic British technique. Almost immediately he was represented by two major galleries in Vancouver, British Columbia and quickly earned a reputation for his work as a watercolor master.
Glover has been an ardent admirer of the artistic styles of the Impressionist like Monet, Pissarro and Sisley. He was also inspired by the art of American painters namely Winslow Homer, John Sargent, James Whistler and Andrew Wyeth. David lives and works at his studio in Southern California.
