I am David Brazier, an artist and small business owner, and I am 17 years old. I am based in Greenville, South Carolina, USA. Growing up, I always loved creating. I loved the artistic projects I got to do in elementary school, and I spent a lot of time doodling and drawing. It wasn’t until I was 11 years old that I began to dabble in painting. While those first paintings didn’t end up how I had hoped, I decided to continue to practise. After many hours of watching YouTube tutorials, and many failed attempts, I began to see progress. Slowly but surely, I grew in my confidence and skills, and I figured out what direction I wanted to go with my art.
Because I wanted to turn this hobby into a business, I knew I needed to find my own artistic style and not create work that was heavily inspired by other creators. At the beginning of 2019, I analysed my goals and aesthetic and began to create work that was original. The summer of 2019 was when I released my first painting collection. Since I loved the idea of working in collections, I knew that that would be something I would continue to do. Even though my creative business has grown, I have continued to create work in that way.
