David Cruey has lived on the Space Coast for over a decade now.  As a local artist, he has been involved in the screen-printing industry for the past 12 years while employed at Tropical Design.  From the time he was old enough to hold a pencil, he’s been drawing. This was expected since his mother, grandfather and older brother were all artists. Mix in a line of musicians as his grandfather, aunts and cousins and you have a very creative family! His main focus was realistic graphite renderings. However in 2013, he changed things up a bit and started painting abstract acrylics mixing nature with energy.  He normally has no idea what he’s going to create until he’s halfway done with a painting. He allows the energy to flow and the end result to evolve.
