	One look at David Cornell’s paintings and his love of nature is evident. His paintings capture not only the obvious beauty around him, but also the feeling and mood of the moment: the warmth of a sunlit meadow, the current of life in a rushing stream, the cool shadows of a dense forest.
	“When painting landscapes, I  value essence over composition  and form, and rely on my  senses to get the feeling  and mood of the place.”
