Artist Statement:

I’ve always been intrigued by
the luminosity and
transparencies found in
watercolor and acrylic
mediums. I believe an artist
must experience the painting –
to absorb the surroundings,
the atmosphere, to have a
oneness with the subject
matter before the first brush
stroke is applied.
My style is described as...

Laura Larkins
When I was a student in college, there was a boy in the art studio next to my art history class. I was so impressed by his body of work that I commissioned him to paint a watercolor. Twenty-one years later, I am still joyfully paying for that painting! I love you! Bebe

Frank E. Anderson, Jr.
David buddy, Happy new web site. Looks good. You just never cease to amaze me. You're the best. :-) frank

Lollie M. Boudrie
Bravo! A wonderful tour through a few of your works. Over the past twenty-some years I have admired your vision. My collection of your works in my San Antonio home remains a joy to me, one that never dulls. Harmony has transported me to a world of wonder and balance for many years. Thank you David.

Jean Mulford
I want my name in your guestbook so that someday I can PROVE I knew you when. . .Your work is wonderful, and I'll proudly display it in my home and treasure it always. Jeanie

Mindy Jasper
I read about you in the Artist's magazine, so I had to come check out the rest of you paintings. You do beautiful work and have definently found your calling in life. I love the subjects you choose to paint and the angles (or the part of the subject) you decide to paint them in. You are very inspirational.

Barbara Harvey
I was so happy to see your paintings in The Artist's Magazine. I presently live in Arkansas. However, what struck a cord in me, was seeing that you are from Monroe. I grew up in South Rockwood and lived in Luna Pier before moving to Arkansas. I have been fortunate to be accepted in an art class taught by Monta Philpot. She is a local artist who is known nationally. I feel very fortunate at my age to be given the opportunity to finally find if there is a secret spot in me that will let a desire to paint and dr aw develop. My husband and I are returning to your area for a visit with family at midmonth. I hope it will be possible to view your artwork on display. Could you let us know where we should go?Thank you for your time.

Judith Cheng
NICE WORK!

Mike & Brenda McLaughlin

Great Talent!!!

Carly Brock
Hi Mr. Larkins, my name is Carly, and I am Tyler Boudries fiance, this makes us distant relatives somehow he tells me. Tyler showed me this page of your work and it is really incredible! I teach high school drawing and painting in Florida and I have a great appreciation for the arts and with a lot of work I hope one day I can make art this beautiful!

Leslie Garoufalis
I feel very fortunate to have started my art collection with the work's of David Larkins. Our pieces have added character and a special warmth to our home. Each one has a very special meaning to us. We admire your work, and look forward to filling our house with more.

Laura Duncan
Your artworks are so amazing......i like the way they are so simple in composition but are so intriguing

Steve Stone
Hi David, I love your new Hawai'i series of paintings. You keep getting better with age!!

Victoria Schmidt
David and Laura, It has been some time, years actually, since I have had the privilege of seeing your home and work up close. Brandon Phillips and I thoroughly enjoyed our time with you. Today, even though I have lived several places since, and visited many art galleries, I still am in awe of your work. Just recently I bought my first piece of artwork and will be looking to purchase another piece soon. Of course, it will be from your collection. Hope you are both well.

José Melgratti
Very nice paintings, congratulation.

Vickie Stiner
Time to reconnect with you Laura and Chance.

steve stone
You paint real purdy ;-) Seriously, I have always admired your work and your talent.
