Dave Hough is a self-taught artist who has been painting for ten years - after his first "experiment" went better than expected. Living in Nelson at the top of the South Island of New Zealand is the ideal setting to inspire works of creativity. Dave mostly paints in acrylic on canvas and occasionally applies other mediums to his works. Typically a contemporary landscape and seascape artist he sometimes dabbles with other subjects. When not painting or trying to sell his art he is often seen running on the local trails and cycleways or enjoying a good coffee at one of the many cafes.
