About the Artist
Davison won a scholarship to the University of Victoria, BC, where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree, with honours, and received an honourable mention for the Helen Pitt Visual Arts Canada Award for the most promising artist to graduate from a British Columbia university. His work can be found in the corporate collections of the Westin Hotels chain, Brentwood Bay Luxury Resort Hotel, Sayward Hill Developments, the Robert W Cameron Law offices, and many private collections.
Close study of a Davison work reveals a thousand tiny mysteries reflecting his many curiosities: the wonder of nature, the power of light, the ubiquitous icons of modern culture, the prettiness of a flower. Says Davison: “I like to think of these images as objects - more like flat sculptures. It’s like arriving at an archeological dig and trying to decode the layers of history and visualize the actions and decisions of the archeologists.”
Davison paints at the window of the hillside studio he built from recovered wood above his house in Victoria where he lives with his wife and three young sons.
