David Seybold was born in Dunkirk, New York, in 1968. He graduated from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 1991 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and teaching certification. With a strong passion for his work and a desire to excel, six years later David left all teaching opportunities to pursue his life-long dream.

A positive attitude and believing in oneself and talents helped David to develop a recipe for success. “Never stop believing in yourself; you are only going to be as good as you want to be.” Holding this philosophy, success was imminent.

David’s childhood artistic ambitions included many forms of art, but it was as age 11 that he discovered oil painting. Working in oils soon became a passion for him and has since become his life-long pursuit.David’s experience with Pennsylvania first began in childhood when his family vacationed with friends in Tunkhannock every summer. Tradition continued every year and David realized that someday he would return to settle in Pennsylvania.

In 1999, David relocated his career to Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, where he maintains a studio and home. Pennsylvania also contains much of the subject matter that inspires his paintings. His favorite subjects range from landscapes, colonial stone homes and farm scenes to the antiques and primitives used in his still life paintings.

David has exhibited in numerous one-man shows in the northeast and has produced work for numerous commissions and fund-raising projects.
