David Canny: Solo Exhibit
On view February–March 31
David Canny grew up in Barbour County, West Virginia, where his early interest in drawing led him to pursue as many art classes as possible throughout high school. He graduated from the Art Academy of Cincinnati in 2012 with a degree in Illustration and spent the following decade working in illustration and screen printing.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Canny shifted his focus to painting. The works featured in this exhibition represent his growth as a painter from 2020 to the present. His subjects are drawn from everyday life—objects found around the home and items he collects, such as coffee pots and tools—rendered with close attention and personal significance.
