Here are some samples of a very popular ongoing series of work that David has called 'Re-Directed Art'. These are existing, unwanted paintings (prints, lithographs or occasionally, original pieces) that he has located at thrift shops,yard sales and has even salvaged from the curb. He then will paint in his own characters, unusual imagery or pop culture icons to give a tired piece a renewed life. In every Re-Directed painting that he does, David will never paint over the existing signature and depending on the project will adapt the traits of the original (colouring, lighting, brushstrokes etc.) or will go in a complete opposite direction and achieve a high contrast in imagery. Whichever style he uses, these neglected, awaiting potential landfill paintings, are now given a second chance and are being enjoyed by collectors worldwide.

 

       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       

 

Due to the popularity and fast sales of the Re-Directed Art series, David has found it better to sell these on Etsy so as to avoid double sales of the same item. Despite having a full time admin, the website needs to be updated after every Paypal purchase and with the more popular items, this could lead to issues. Please visit Etsy for viewing and purchasing available pieces.
For daily updates on what's happening, join the Gnarled Branch Facebook page.

You can also purchase prints of the originals and other merchandise at Society6 and Redbubble.

Do you have your own idea of what you'd like added in to a thrift store painting? David accepts commissions, so if there is something you have in mind you can email him at info@gnarledbranch.com to discuss your request. If you have a painting that you want David to add something to, this is also an option as long as you are local enough to arrange drop off / pick up.
