David McDonough is an artist and educator based in Queens, NY. His abstractions are often suggestive of natural forms, though they elude any singular reading. He works to balance control and spontaneity in processes that cultivate play, improvisation, invention, and transformation. The intensity of the color palette, along with the varied surface textures, create intimate worlds rich with imaginative possibilities and visual discovery.
David has shown in solo and group shows in the NYC area including recent shows with Good Naked Gallery, Paradice Palase, Studio Archive Project, Tappeto Volante Projects, Equity Gallery, and One River School. He has received multiple awards and is a Dedalus Foundation Fellowship nominee. He teaches painting at CUNY College of Staten Island, and is represented by Good Naked Gallery.
