The Art of David Chorlton
David Chorlton
David Chorlton lived in England and Austria before moving to Phoenix in 1978. His paintings, mostly watercolour,
have been exhibited in Austria and the United States. Collections of his poetry include FORGET THE COUNTRY YOU CAME FROM from Singular
Speech Press, and OUTPOSTS from Taxus Press in Exeter, England. Essays and reviews have appeared in The Arizona Republic, National Catholic
Reporter, Poet Lore, and in several online publications. His chapbook, COMMON SIGHTINGS, was a recent winner in the Palanquin Press Competition.
Recently David has had poems in 3rd Muse and Thunder Sandwich and Adirondack Review, all online publications. He continues to appreciate most
the Arizona landscape and its birds. Slowly, he is beginning a new series of paintings in his visual arts life. He continues to paint in Phoenix, trying to
discover something lyrical between the high-rise buildings and the houses beneath them. This is his twenty-fourth year in Phoenix, and he still struggles
to adjust! Home
