David Paynter

Sculptor / Poet

After a successful business career building his own design and marketing consultancy, David decided to retire early to spend more time in a purely creative role. A course at Schumacher College in Dartington inspired him to rekindle his early passion for art in all forms. He now enjoys painting, life drawing and sculpting, mainly in stone and bronze. With each stone carving comes a poem.

David is a member of Guildford Arts and Deputy Chair of Surrey Sculpture Society. His work is regularly exhibited in the Home Counties, in Devon and Cornwall and is in private collections around the UK.
