Dorset

The paintings of Dorset were all painted en plein air and explore a range of landscapes and seascapes. David paints in all seasons and encounters a range of weather and conditions that can add to the challenge. The Jurassic coastline offers a broad range of dramatic and inspiring coastline from the chalk rocks of Old Harry in Studland to the fossil covered beach and cliffs at Charmouth. David Atkins is an artist who lives and works in Dorset.

Italy

I was asked in 2015 to visit Italy with the purpose of producing a body of work that explored the small village of Guardabosone and the surrounding landscape. After a number of visits to draw and gather information I spent a month in May 2017 and February 2018 and produced a body of work from each.

Lake District Paintings

I spent the month of January drawing and painting in the Lake District. With the promise of snow, I wanted to work in familiar places and experience the weather and conditions of this cold month.
