Entitled "Full Moon" scratch board on paper, framed. Overall size: 13 1/4 x 13 1/4 in. Sight size: 5 x 6 in. Provenance: purchased from artist. David McKirdy is a mixed media artist living and working in North Tampa. Using such techniques as burning or punching holes and other shapes in materials chosen for their textural and visual qualities, McKirdy creates surfaces that are worked maximally with minimal means to produce complex fields, always with an underlying order. Finding inspiration from his time looking through microscopes as a biology student at the University of South Florida, McKirdy describes that his award-winning body of work “evokes associations from the atomic to the cosmic.” A careful arrangement of layers and materials pulls the viewer in to discover illusions of movement, harmony, and pattern. Scratchboard is a form of direct engraving, can be used to yield highly detailed, precise and evenly textured artwork.
