The exploration of psyche and fantasy is the focus of David Middaugh’s extremely intricate, meticulous unique drawings on paper. Since 1975, David Middaugh has exclusively created colored pencil drawings in which recognizable images are progressively transformed.
Throughout his works, vivid colors are carefully juxtaposed, enlivening a winding movement of forms. Distortion of recognizable images, reinterpretations of visual cliches, such as ads and cartoons and explicit sexuality are characteristics Middaugh's shares with "Chicago style" art.
David Middaugh studied art in Chicago from 1972 - 1977; Middaugh's interests are similar to those of the "Hairy Who" artist group. Like Jim Nutt, David Middaugh has developed an idiosyncratic narrative structure and maximized the expressive potential of form and color.
In a manner similar to Barbara Rossi, David Middaugh chooses to meticulously render his forms and group asymmetrical forms according to an underlying symmetry. Although influences are evident, Middaugh's amalgamation of the autobiographical, comic, mundane, and fantastic reflects a distinctly individual sensibility.
This is a GUARANTEED Authentic Unique Hand Signed unique colored pencil drawing by David Middaugh.
