David Fleming - Painter

My art is about the beauty I see and feel. Much of what I "see" is sparked by music, memory, aroma or by my endless daydreaming. Often it is a fleeting sensation, déjà vu, where I literally feel the lingering memory disappear, then grasp for it.

Had to bail on painting today. Monsoon hit hard today and with ground shaking lightning strikes. Darned pretty though. Flash flooding in the desert is legit. #flashflood (at Red Rock Canyon Las Vegas)
