Dave Baldwin first became interested in art while studying scientific illustration under Donald B. Sayner at the University of Arizona in the 1960s. By the 1980s he had moved from realism to experimenting with abstraction. Subsequently, he built figurative abstractions with alkyd, oil, watercolor, and acrylic paints, then added sand, metallic leaf, wax, glass, and various fabrics for textural effects. His solo exhibition venues include the galleries of Vanderbilt and Emory Universities, the Utah Shakespearean Festival, the Thousand Oaks (CA) Civic Arts Plaza, and the Grants Pass (OR) Museum of Art. His work has been featured in Scientific American, Sports Illustrated, and Graphic Review, and is included in the permanent collection of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown, NY. His painting, “Fugue for the Pepper Players”, was featured in Treasures of the Baseball Hall of Fame by John Thorn (1998). Also, Dave taught “Science and Art” at the Art Institute of California in San Diego. He is a founding member of the Yachats Arts Guild.
