David Stevenson 2011 - 5th Avenue, Apt. #508 Seattle, WA 98121 (206) 728-0270 David Stevenson had a great head start as an illustrator. He was born in Eugene, Oregon, to a family in the art business. His grandfather was a local artist who also owned the local art store; consequently, David was furnished with all of the tools he needed. When he was twelve years old, his father opened an art gallery and frame shop. It was there that David began to study and draw from the works that surrounded him. Though he was heavily influenced by the nature and wildlife pieces that hung in the gallery, he continued to draw what interested him the most -- Fantasy. After graduating from high school, David moved to Seattle, Washington, to attend the Art Institute of Seattle. From there, he began illustrating on a freelance basis. His projects have included a promotional poster for the annual art and science celebration in Corvallis, Oregon, cartoons published and distributed nationally by King Features Syndicate, and illustrations for a diabetic health care book published by Contemporary Books. For the past three years, David's fantasy artwork has been displayed at the annual Origionals in Miniature art show in Corvallis, alongside other noted artists as Michael Whelan and Don Maitz. His work can currently be seen at most Northwest science fiction/fantasy convention art shows. David now lives in Seattle, where he fuels his creativity with caffeine. He gladly welcomes any inquiries regarding his art.
