David Storey is a painter and printmaker who lives and works in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire.

He was born in Workington, in Cumbria, and studied art at London's Hornsey Art College (now Middlesex University). After graduating David spent 10 years working in the music industry, producing sleeve artwork for the likes of: The Specials, The Housemartins, Iggy Pop, Robert Wyatt, Norman Cook, Sir Elton John and Phil Collins. In the early 1990s he returned to his first love... painting.

His current focus is on a series of loose oil paintings on the theme of figures in a landscape. These paintings have been described as having a mood of haunting stillness and the compositions are characterised by a bold simplicity.

Recent exhibitions include joint shows at The Brighton Museum and Art Gallery and the Cork Street Gallery, London.
