Biography: David Christopher Atack
Born in Knottingley, Yorkshire, David’s interest in art was apparent at an early age and developed into an abiding obsession.
He spent three years at Wakefield Art College (where he gained his intermediate certificate in fine art) and a further 2 years at Batley College where he gained a special level National Diploma. His skills are varied as he studied painting, lithography, sculpture and graphics. During his 30 years working in industry as a graphic designer, David’s work included many illustrations for international companies.

His holidays in France particularly Brittany fired David’s imagination, but his love for English countryside, whether it be the flat and gracious wildlife of Norfolk or the warmth of the Wolds is his abiding passion.
His particular skill is capturing elusive light on his subjects and this is apparent in most of his Art which specializes in landscapes and rural scenes, mainly in oils.
Now a professional artist David has exhibitions in various Galleries in Yorkshire and was made a full member of the British Society of Painters in 1992.
He has many paintings in private collections, both in the UK and abroad.
