Landscape and Still Life Artist in Oil and Pastel

After a long and successful career in marketing and branding financial institutions and higher education, Paula David has reconnected with her artistic roots to pursue a life as a full-time artist. She paints what she loves, capturing the beauty and the character of Cape Cod and the Islands in oil and pastel.

Paula and her husband Ken live in nearby Brewster, where they lovingly restored a quintessential 1920’s cottage. A graduate of the Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University , Paula studied marketing and visual communications. She began her career as a graphic designer and creative director for several advertising agencies and later rose to be a senior-level marketing executive and well-known brand strategist. She built and cultivated several world-class marketing organizations and branded some of the nation’s largest and most respected higher education and financial institutions, earning numerous national awards for excellence in her field.
