Templeton deals mainly with color: how it is handled on canvas and handled with various brush strokes. His realistic work is impressionistic. He starts by painting outlines in bright colors that contrast with the colors used in the painting and doesn’t worry about whether those lines show through in the finished piece. His realistic work is done from photos he’s taken.
Dave has shown work at the Sugar Creek Arts Festival. While in graduate school at Illinois State University, he won a purchase award for a painting at the Evansville, Indiana, Museum of Art, History and Science. He’s also had two works in a show at Lakeview Museum of Arts & Sciences in Peoria. He had a one-man show at Chestnut Health Center, Bloomington and shows in various shows at McLean County Arts Center. He teaches a drawing class at the Art Center. He has been featured twice in American Art Collector magazine. One of Templeton’s non-objective paintings was chosen to permanently hang in the City Hall / Multimodal Transportation Center in Normal.
