Finishes & Collections

Artists Proof Collection

Artist Proof Collection

Reserved primarily for David’s personal collection, museum exhibitions, gallery showings, and conservation events, Artist Proofs are made available to private collectors on a limited basis.

Each Artist Proof is hand-signed and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

The Artist Proof Collection begins with the first proof print of each image, with additional Artist Proofs limited to 10% of the corresponding Signature Series — Limited Edition Collection, preserving their rarity and exclusivity.

Signature Series - Limited Edition Collection  

This collection represents the majority of my fine art photography, including many award-winning images recognized at the local, state, and national levels.

Each limited-edition print is hand-signed and numbered and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

I carefully select the printing material that best complements each image, whether Exhibition Canvas, ChromaLuxe Metal, or Museum Acrylic. While most images are best presented in a single medium, some lend themselves beautifully to more than one.

Each medium has its own independent, limited-edition series, allowing collectors to enjoy my work across a range of presentation styles and price points without compromising quality or exclusivity.
