About David Garbe

​

Originally from Bakersfield, CA I've lived in San Francisco and Marin County for over 30 years. Photography, drawing and watercolors are a way for me to connect with and relate to the beauty of the Bay Area's natural environment. After serving in the Vietnam War and facing some of life's challenges associated with being a veteran, I feel fortunate to live here and to be affected everyday by the natural wonders that could easily be taken for granted. I've been an artist all my life, but never took it seriously until I suffered a life-changing back injury. Interacting with the world around me through various artistic mediums has been a large part of discovering who I am and has been healing . . . body, mind and soul.
