My Bio
David Beattie is a professional printmaker/artist of over thirty years experience.

Working from his studio/gallery in a rural Welsh village in West Wales, David paints, draws, etches, sculpts, welds etc... and generally tries his hand at everything that takes his fancy .

David is a vociferous advocate of the truly "original " print and does not pull his punches when encountering the fraudulent misrepresentation of computer generated/inkjet images as "original prints" that deluge the market.

A.

In 2013..realising he was the only member of the family not in possession of a University Degree. David applied to University to study for a BA in Sculpture...The adventure begins!
