September 2021: David Graham

David Graham is a farmer, educator, and artist in Orange, Massachusetts. His art is inspired by the scenes of animals, children, and nature at The Farm School where he has worked for 10 years.

David creates mixed media two-dimensional work with vibrant color, often depicting real moments from his life on the farm. Art making deepens his experience of his farm work and is also a daily, necessary respite. Mark-making, creating patterns, and color-play all come into his exploration of interactions with fellow farmers, young visiting students, and his beloved farm animals.
