Overview
Born Sydney, Australia
Lives & Works, Hawkesbury River (Kuring-gai)
David Collins is a landscape painter who has lived on the Hawkesbury River since 1987. Rowing the river and painting or drawing from its shores has been a major influence on his work over this time.
Collins has exhibited an extensive body of work since the early ‘90’s and has been the recipient of a number of notable artist residencies including the Australian Wildlife Conservancy Residency, Mt Zero, QLD and Nock Art Foundation Residency, Queenstown, New Zealand. He has also been selected as a finalist in numerous awards including the Wynne Prize at the Art Gallery of NSW, where he was awarded Highly Commended (2013).
