For more than 20 years David Ward, has been making Stick Art, Wall Sculptures, and Organic Lighting. Calling himself a "Stick Artist" he has worked with many nationally known interior designers and architects on hospitality and high-end residential projects. Michael Taylor Designs, Solage Resort, St Regis, Ritz Carlton, and Auberge du Soleil are some of his clients.
An art piece or light may start with a simple sketch or drawing or even a verbal idea. He takes that and translates that feeling into a finished design. The stick art lights for Solage resort and Sol Bar started in that way. The designer asked for a large sphere light with a chandelier (see above).
Subtle artwork and Asian designs have always been a guide for David's artwork. Noguchi, Tuttle and interior designers such as Michael Taylor are some of his favorite design inspirations. Napa and mountain modern styles go very well with David's organic, natural clean lines and geometry of his stick artwork and lighting.

Services
I have always enjoyed the artistic relationship to clients and designers and the creative magic that can result from that collaboration. I am glad to discuss ideas for projects and collaborations and do prototypes when necessary with no obligation. David's artwork is available at Michael Taylor Design showrooms around the country michaeltaylordesigns.com.
Here you can see some examples of David's custom stick art lighting. Many if not all of these have been collaborations with high-end interior designers for their hospitality, commercial and residential projects. They often come with requests like "I want a rectangular box" or "Make me a large round light, and include paper or other types of shades".
Many years of trial and error have led to this unique expression of David's art. Here you can see some of the Stick Art projects he has participated in. Many are custom-made to fit any interior. The natural medium of bendable sticks provides a very unique application for interior spaces because the pieces can be seen through.
