David William Young paints. He paints in oils. He is a recluse. Love and intensity of feeling is easier in isolation and his art is changing............

Art in the age of the Anthropocene.

The Eden years draw to a close, those years between the last ice age and the mid 1950,s when the climate was benign and humans flourished are drawing to a close due to their stupidity, greed & indifference.
The paintings on this page will in future reflect the life, death, contradictions, brutality, exterminations, ignorance and conflicts of this new epoch while all the time shedding a visual tear for the vanishing Eden.
With no power to stop this juggernaut all he can do is use his brushes to express his observations and sentiments in the microcosm of the little valley in which he lives.
A microcosm of the whole world.
