David Horan

True knowledge is gained from a long life experienced. To be one’s best self, on every given day, builds a life of character and beauty. Deep are the roots of the one’s willing to live a lifetime of reflection and often, they comfortably stand alone.
From a great elevation and distance, the encompassing landscape of the earth and sky can often become mirrored in one another. As unique and diverse as the minerals of the earth, the sky can be adorned with the colors it presents.
There is a perpetual moment circling the earth where the sun crests the surface and a new dawn occurs. The legends, myths, and fables of our past can be separated by thousands of years. However, all these orators and authors creations have shared in a singular moment, repeated throughout time; a new day’s dawning.

About David Horan

Veteran – Marines 2001-2004

My self-introduction to art was intended to just be a recovery activity. A loving wife, son, a second open heart surgery, and several art awards later. Art is a way to embrace every part of Life, Recovery and Advocacy.  My process towards creating art is much like all of our lives; not always direct, unpredictable, accelerated by the unforeseen, but in reflection can be beautiful. While my tool of choice is uncommon, my art can be inspiring. I am passionate about our Nation and the freedoms we are able to enjoy as Americans. My flag series celebrates the diversity in our country, our beliefs, and the countless sacrifices made for Freedom.

Artist Statement

My art is a means to embrace and produce what reflects every part of my life.  I am thankful to Uniting US and the Hill Center for the opportunity to show my art.
