David L. Weaver

About the Artist

A native of Houston, Texas, David Weaver specializes in artwork of a surrealist, abstract and sometimes environmentally sympathetic nature. Weaver graduated from Scarborough High School, where he was a member of the Art Honors Society and in 1992, was awarded First Place in the Regional Industry Fair for AutoCAD.

Following high school, Weaver pursued undergraduate studies in Horticulture, especially the field of landscape architecture. However, due to his prolonged exposure to pesticides, he developed a host of health problems, which led him away from a career in Horticulture and toward the world of art. Ironically, this experience with toxic chemicals in the natural world became the primary motivator and source material for his artwork. Weaver's work illustrates issues of harmony and conflict, communicating his hope that people will develop respect for nature and its creatures and recognize the connectivity of man and nature.

Since turning his attention to art full-time, Weaver's work has been included in over 15 art exhibitions throughout the state, including shows at the Fort Worth Community Arts Center, the Elder Street Gallery in Houston, and Gallery 19/Heights Gallery also in Houston. Weaver credits his uncle, John Glenn Brown--a professional art instructor of thirty years, with introducing him to many art forms as a child and thus revealing his talent and interest in art.
