Biography

Portrait of David V. D'Andrea


David V. D'andrea believes in the tradition of the "memento mori", the visual reminder of the transience of life on this earth. Through signs and symbols such as aviform in flight, sigillary calligraphy, disembodied wings, and skeletal forms, he seeks to perpetuate the avowal that is death, and in turn catharsis; to create archaic crests for modern battles of loss, love, and hopeless abandon.

In 2006, David received a BA in Illustration from the California College of the Arts, where he studied under the legendary Barron Storey. Today he calls Oakland home and continues his work as a freelance illustrator.

His other interests include cryptozoology, obsolete electronics, ornithomancy, sacred geometry, psychometry, and other mysteries of mind, space and time.

For Hire

I can take on new projects on a very limited basis. Please feel free to contact me for an initial price estimate and timeframe.

In most cases, a job begins with a lot of brainstorming, research, and correspondence. I show this in thumbnails and basic sketches, which can then be emailed. I then execute a final sketch which, upon your approval, would be the the basis for the final piece.

I retain further rights to the original unless we arrange otherwise. In other words, you can use the image for the agreed upon job only. Additional usage would require another fee. Details can be worked out on an individual basis.
