Picture
David Schell is a painter working in Portland, Oregon. He received an MFA from American University and a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He is interested in how we design, build, and organize in an attempt to create order. He is also interested in how structure,  order, and best intentions eventually give way to something else. His work is often about allowing those two realities to coexist.

Recent exhibitions include Temporary Fun at Augen Gallery in Portland, Oregon; End of the Beginning in Queensland, Australia; What Develops at The Floating Gallery in Portland, OR; Just Like This for a Little While (solo show) at Oranj Studio in Portland, OR; the 60th Chautauqua Annual Exhibit of Contemporary Art in Chautauqua, New York; 
Transformation Chase at the North View Gallery, also in Portland, OR. He has also shown work at Gallery 214 on the Pacific Northwest College of Art campus (Portland,OR) and at Oregon State University (Corvallis, OR). His paintings were also published in Studio Visit magazine (volume 24, 2013).
