David Yorke
The Plainsmen Gallery is proud to feature original paintings and giclee prints by internationally-collected artist David Yorke. David received his formal art training at the University of Florida, earning a degree in Advertising Design in 1971. He began his career in Educational Media Production as an illustrator/designer and eventually other commercial pursuits with Animation Background Painting with the Florida Disney Studios.
In 2004, David left the corporate art world to satisfy a long-desired endeavor as a gallery artist. His representational painting style and historical narrative of Native Americans and the American Western Frontier have been the main focus of his artwork. David has exhibited in numerous shows, galleries, and auctions. His work is on display at the James Museum of Western and Wildlife Art and the Booth Western Art Museum. David has been featured in all of the national western art magazines, including a major article in the Nov/Dec 2020 issue of Art of the West Magazine. David’s home and studio are located in Clermont, Florida. For more information call The Plainsmen Gallery: 727-734-8200 or email art@plainsmen.com.
One of David Yorke's large paintings is featured in the new Ken Burns movie "The American Buffalo." This two-part documentary is available to stream on PBS.
