About the Artist
David Zuccarini was born in Baltimore and attended the Corcoran School of Art and the Maryland Institute College of Art.
The subjects of Zuccarini’s paintings are frequently taken from his immediate surroundings. His family, students, and studio figure prominently in his work. “In the process of painting those subjects that you know, you find your own voice," he says. "You learn from each piece that you do and sometimes a dialogue ensues. You start out with one idea, and by the time you finish the piece something else occurs to you. It’s an ongoing process."
Zuccarini has exhibited widely in both solo and group shows, including at the National Portrait Gallery, Butler Institute of American Art, Chrysler Museum, Société des Pastellistes de France, Salmagundi Club, Brigham Young University and Artscape.
In addition to painting, Zuccarini teaches art at his studio at the Howard County Center for the Arts. He is a recipient of the Distinguished Teacher Award from the White House Commission of Presidential Scholars.
