MacPhee, David

I am a photo realistic artist in cut paper, and kind of obsessed with color, light and definition. My works in paper translate well to prints, where the defined lines allow for large reproductions in print. Since I am a Mechanical engineer, I use an engineered process for my work. The craftsmanship is in the execution.

I have lived a lot of places but I call Arkansas my home. I have lived here off and on since 1969, going to middle and high school at Lakeside in Hot Springs, going to college at UVA in Virginia, and coming back to work at the Bauxite mines and Entergy for 42 years. I now live in Maumelle. I was born in Ontario, while my family was on the road making a living. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest in Seattle, Longview and Kelso, WA. The woods and mountains in Arkansas are similar to my childhood, but much hotter. I’m just now getting used to the summer heat.

I hope you enjoy my work. I strive to make people happy.
