About David Kao

 

When David was a little kid, his father brought him to an auto shop to pick up their car. David stared the complexity of the mechanical parts underneath the car, he immediately fell in love with cars. David started drawing cars when he was 3 years old and continued to improve his drawing skills ever since. Back in the day, his drawings were just few simple lines and circles.

 

David’s drawing skills are self taught through countless of trial and error, developing a set of techniques through the years. It was a difficult process, because he is never satisfied with his drawings. It wasn’t until when David is 19 years old. David started working on realism. He started by paying extra attention to reflection, small details, shading techniques, blending techniques, etc. Now he is closer to making his drawing photo-realistic due to his dedication and passion for drawing.

 

Until today, David still has strong passion for drawings and love for cars . However, as he graduated from school and started his working life, David does not have much time to continue his drawing passion. He started his own business as an entrepreneur which is a product design company. We sure will see more drawings or beautiful products in the future from David.

 

Here is what David wants to share with you:

No matter how complicated the scene is, don’t let your mind  or surrounding take you down. Focus on drawing what you see. Never give up, keep on trying. One day you will be amazed what  determination can accomplish when you compare your old and new drawings. I hope my work can inspire you and guide you to become a better artist. 

 

"David is an absolute pleasure to work with! His work is beautiful, and when we found out he did commissioned work it was a no-brainer to have a drawing done. He provided us with updates every step of the way, making us feel involved in the entire process from start to finish. The attention to detail is amazing, and it's hard to believe what we got in the mail was actually hand-drawn. We can't wait to have it framed and hang it next to the original photograph, and hopefully David will do another drawing or two for us in the future. If you're thinking about having him do a drawing for you, don't. Just do it -- You won't regret it in the least! :) "
