David Fox (Ethiopia 1965-67) is a self-taught artist who has been drawing most of his life. He works in oils, watercolors, and pen and ink and has won several awards for his oils and acrylics. While serving in the Peace Corps, David lived in Ethiopia. His travels and his interactions with the Ethiopian people have served as a lifelong source of inspiration for his figure studies and landscapes.

More recently, David has created architectural sketch coloring books of New York and Philadelphia, which include line drawings of iconic landmarks of these two major cities. David has also authored a coloring book of the Borough of Narberth, depicting life in small-town USA. Prints of David’s watercolors are available at the Philadelphia Museum of Art . . .
