David S. Hoornstra, artist

Painter, illustrator, photographer, designer, writer
August 2019
I’ve stepped away for a while to recover from my fling with art fairs.
It seems I'm not an “art fair” artist. But I’m back, ready to do art on my own terms.
The three buttons above open my Price Lists. The Reproductions are of my paintings. The Photo Prints are my frameworthy “fine-art” or just really nice photos.
The Photography Gallery: Coast Guard, travel and what I call fine art.
The Sword Maker features my photos of Alex Gleason’s metalwork.
Buttons below: David Classic Design is my commercial-art business.
 About the Artist links to My Story and Philosophy.
The Avocations button links you to my adventures in swordplay, medieval recreation and history.
