Although he was once a fan of only black and white, he now paints with explosions of colors. Most of his portraits are of female characters and it is very important to note that they are layered with color, motion, and emotion. These portraits are done outdoors in large walls and often inspire magnificence. According to David Walker, the portraits of the women involved are often stolen and found in photography, magazines, or other websites. He plans on working less with the unknown and more with people that he has met or photographed.

 

David Walker has a high level of skills as he is very detailed orientated and possesses an excellent level of spray can control to create shadows, lines, and textures in his artwork. He is drawn into the idea of creating beautiful out of lo-brow materials and methods. He loves to bring attention to the street art world by painting with only spray paint. His lack of brushwork raises questions when comparing graffiti and traditional paintings.
