David Supper

David Supper, artist and poet, taught art and photography at secondary school for over thirty years. He has completed nearly 200 paintings in his unique hard-edge realism style which he developed while still at Manchester School of Art and Design. David has exhibited his work in Thompsons Gallery in London, the Driffold Gallery in Solihull and the Triptique Gallery in Mansfield. David was born in Frimley, Surrey, England in 1945. His father, Jesse Bertram Supper was attached to the RAF during WW2 and worked on RADAR counter intelligence at RAF Farnborough. David's artistic talents soon showed and at Primary school he appeared in a number of school plays, most notably as Toad in 'Toad of Toad Hall'. David's interest in Theatre continued through his teens and into adulthood. He acted, designed and took on several administrative responsibilities as a member of the Progress Theatre in Reading. He also served as Southern Region secretary of the Little Theatre Guild of Great Britain for a number of years. David started writing poetry seriously in 1999 and since then has written more than 500 poems. In 2007 David moved to Nottingham and soon after founded a poetry group, Serpent's Tooth with the aim of bringing together local poets to learn from each other and pursue a greater understanding of the medium. David's own work has appeared in many publications including: Cornwall a poetry anthology; Lucidity, poetry USA; Poetry Super Highway (poet of the week) and in the following collections: Expressions; A Poet's Siddur*; The Robin Hood Book and Universal Oneness. David considers his poetry to be descriptive, lyrical and dealing with his own perception of the world around him, while at the same time reacting to changing times and styles. David has three children, from his first marriage, five grand-children dispersed around the world, and is now happily married to Bryony, the author of the famous 'Pasta Kidz and Petz' series of children's books.
