DAVE PEARSON

Dave Pearson (1937-2008) was a London born artist who spent most of his working life in Rossendale, Lancashire.

The writer and critic Edward Lucie-Smith wrote:“It’s not often nowadays that a really major artist slips through the net. In Dave Pearson’s case the fact is the more surprising since his major enterprises… were invariably both extremely ambitious and not at all difficult for ordinary spectators to construe and empathize with.”

In 1972, after 7 years of intense focus on work inspired by Van Gogh, Dave Pearson started work on a series of drawings and paintings – mostly small scale – illustrating the Book of Revelation of St John the Divine, the last book of the New Testament.
