"For me, art is about sharing ideas and inspiration."

David C. Hancock upholds traditional tenets of taste, aesthetics, and craftsmanship while exploring philosophical and narrative themes in his work. Hancock’s inspiration is drawn from the history of western classical art, particularly the early Italian Baroque, and increasingly 19th century Italian painters.

Hancock views art as an opportunity to share ideas, and seeks to inspire virtue through his compositions, whether still life, portrait, or the human figure.
