Davis’ current work is simultaneously realistic and magical; figurative and ornamental; and comforting and provocative. Whether working in charcoals on gray paper or in oils on wood panels, most of Davis’ work combines painterly depictions of the human figure combined with gold leaf accents. The imagery is often somber and contemplative, and utilizes personal symbolism while exploring universal themes.. Davis has a unique style that places figures in dream-like situations, or in positions where they interact with the decorative aspects of the piece. His works portray beauty in the quiet moments of life and in the inner workings of the heart and mind, as well as a sense of wonder at the magic all around us.
