David Makinson

David started painting in January 2018, aged 54. Born with a complex structural heart defect, early retirement was forced on David, so he took up art as a distraction and a positive and creative way to deal with the physical and mental challenges that living with a highly complex medical condition brings.

David has no intention of making personal financial gain from his artworks, but instead uses all profits he makes from sales and commissions to donate to The Somerville Foundation, a UK charity specialising in supporting adults with life-long complex heart problems.

David hopes you enjoy his work as much as he does in creating it.
