Dave Wilder

Ever since I can remember I've been fascinated by the American West. Its people, history, landscape and legends are fertile ground for any artist, and our collective ideas about the West as expressed through popular culture reveal an intricate and uniquely American mythology that simply begs comment. Playing around with this mythology has been the main focus of my artistic endeavours for more than twenty years.

Currently my studio is awash in sketches and works-in-progress for a new portfolio of paintings driven a bit more by character and story and a bit less by visual puns. Please check back often as these new paintings and prints become available.

I also accept commissions and illustration opportunities on subjects relating to the West. Please see the contact page for information.
