David Boardman
David was born in Leicester in 1973 and spent his formative years growing up in Northumberland. He developed a love of drawing and painting at a very early age, inheriting his artistic skills from his grandfather, a renowned Cheshire painter.
After finishing school he enrolled in an Art and Design foundation course at Newcastle-Upon-Tyne College, where he developed his painting and design skills whilst cultivating a passion for modern art. After collecting his diploma, he won a place at Manchester Metropolitan University where he studied illustration, obtaining his degree in 1995.
Upon leaving university, David moved to Knutsford, Cheshire where he has lived ever since. After spending several years pursuing a career in commercial illustration in which he had considerable success, he decided to concentrate on his own work, producing fine art canvases.
Since he had his first one-man exhibition in 2004, David has gone on to exhibit in galleries all over the UK, including the renowned Biscuit Factory in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, and the Wendy Levy Gallery in Didsbury, Manchester introducing his work to a wider audience and garnering great praise. He has also undertaken many commissions over the years including one for Lola Cars International, the race-car giant, who commissioned him to produce a major piece for their headquarters in Cambridgeshire.
As well as art, David’s other great passion is music. Over the years he has played guitar and sang with several bands including his current project Fine Lines, with whom he has recorded and released 3 albums. He has also shared a stage with acts such as Elton John, Kiefer Sutherland, Bob Geldof and Texas.
