The Art of Art in the Garden

David is a visual storyteller. The inquisitive son of a zoologist, David grew up in the field with his dad, trapping and preserving specimens for museums, exploring bat caves throughout the South and Southwest and studying the complex interplay between life forms and their ecologies. He began documenting his impressions of the living world around him with cameras at a very early age and has never stopped exploring the world through lens and viewfinder. For twenty five years he specialized in telling other peoples' stories, in Fortune 500 Annual Reports, national ad campaigns and corporate multimedia presentations. In the last dozen or so years David’s work has been featured multiple times on the cover of Fine Gardening and Sunset, and featured in This Old House Magazine, Better Homes & Gardens, American Rose, Flower Magazine, Leaf Magazine, Garden Design, Pacific Horticulture, and Northwest Horticulture. David was the co-creator of The 50 Mile Bouquet, and recently completed his third book project, Growing Conifers: The Complete Illustrated Gardening and Landscaping Guide in partnership with John J. Albers, published by New Society Publishers and due out in May, 2021.
