About db

David Buck has been a resident artist with Buffalo Arts Studio since 2006, working primarily in oil.

He works from photographs, concentrating on gesture and emotion rather than detail. Dave has used the idyllic aspects of his own rural adolescence as catalyst – the Buck and Chase family albums have been a rich resource. Very often, the works feature everyday activities such as picnics or yard work or road trips. By recapturing and reinterpreting these fleeting moments, his works explore the way memory filters experience. 

He has exhibited consistently over the last decade, including Echo Art Fair, the Kenan Center, Olean Public Library, and the Distillery in Pittsburgh. David has been widely collected in Western New York, as well as by individuals across the U.S. 

This summer, David is featured in Recollect, a retrospective exhibition at his home base of Buffalo Arts Studio. Additional recent news includes participating in Sourcing Life at SUNY Niagara, and staging Veronica at Pausa Art House in Buffalo. He’s added some works to the Roswell Park Cancer Institute collection. He has had three solo exhibitions at ro Homeshop in Buffalo. And he’s had a piece added to the permanent collection of the Burchfield Penney Art Center.
