David McDonald | amcecreativearts

David works in both sculpture and painting. The visual qualities of his work vary, but they are connected through a belief in process and intuition as a way of developing work. He believes all things in the natural world are interdependent and creates work that reflects this belief.  Davis is also a student of Zen Buddhism and is Abbot of the Dharma Zen Center in Los Angeles.  David has received a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Pollock Krasner Foundation Fellowship, and a Fellowship from the City of Santa Monica. His work has been exhibited widely both nationally and internationally, and he has been written about in publications as diverse as the Los Angeles Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Boston Globe, Art in America, and the Santa Fean. He has taught at various institutions, including the University of Southern California, California State University Long Beach, UCLA, and New Roads High School.
