He currently serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Design at Brigham Young University.

David will showcase a new original series of drawing for the Stations of the Cross. His intent with this project originated in an effort to create a Christ-centered work with an approach to the path of discipleship and pilgrimage through his art. The resulting effort is fifteen drawings which follow the traditional path of Christ from condemnation to crucifixion.

The artist will be available to speak about the process of creating this collection and the meaning behind the pieces with questions to follow.

Refreshments will be served.
