About
David Hamilton is a contemporary artist and art teacher who lives and works in Melbourne, Australia.
Hamiltons figurative paintings and drawings display a preoccupation with surface and an emphasis upon formal and abstract values. Through his reductive, almost minimalist approach to expressing his subject his imagery takes on a still, but charged symbolic presence.
Hamilton graduated from RMIT University, Melbourne with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree (Honours) and later completed a Master of Art by Research in Painting also at RMIT University, Melbourne.
​Hamilton has an extensive teaching background as an Art educator and Lecturer. He has taught within the Schools of Fine Art, Interior Design and Fashion at RMIT University, Melbourne and the Department of Fine Art at Monash University, Caufield.
His work has been exhibited both in Australia and Internationally and is held in numerous private collections.
The Artist is represented in New South Wales, Australia by Gallery Jennings Kerr. h
