(b.1947 - Cleveland, Ohio) Painter David Buttram pursues the ever-changing character of the inner-city through his paintings. Inspired by the styles of Van Gogh, Rembrandt, many of the Impressionist, and the works of the Ashcan school; Buttram seeks to create images of natural and man made objects, through various combinations of light, shadow, reflections, and color; which reveal a range of human emotions and moods. Buttram expects the viewer to be able to explore evidence of toil and strife, beauty and peace.
