“‘Still life with full moon was a painted plein aire from a still life in my studio. I select koa wood for it’s grain, build the panel, sand with 6 different grits, then burn every line of the composition into the wood, then finish with dozens of layers of oil paint. I was inspired to love wood by my partner, Crystal Lockwood, a Wood Sculptress.” -David
