Artist Bio
David Flury is a self-taught artist who grew up in South Central Los Angeles and whose work is very much informed by graffiti art as well as the work of an earlier generation of Chicano artists. David Flury defines his goals and passion to share his work with the masses while taking art classes in college. Raised by his mother, who is of Guatemalan descent, David primarily connects with his Mayan roots. One may easily recognize the Latino influence in his paintings through the images he creates, and the vibrant primary colors he uses to make each artwork illuminate.
