David Irvine, and artist and crafter from Toronto, Canada uses recycled or reclaimed materials to create his artworks. Getting ready for Halloween, the artist made a series of spooky decorations on salvaged burnt out light bulbs.

“Generally, I like creating works of art that are creepy or edgy since I have a passion for scary stuff and Halloween,” the artist shared on his Etsy store. “I do a lot of artworks that would be described as low brow contemporary but have worked on many commissioned pieces that were more traditional in nature.”

Other than doing his arts and crafts, Irvine also enjoys gardening, scary movies and anything Halloween related. He also loves to sip fancy cocktails and tell the same 3-4 bad jokes to his ‘very patient and tolerant wife”.

If you are interested to see his work, check out his Facebook page where he shares images of his creations. He also has an Etsy store where you can buy his decorated light bulbs.

David Irvine is an artist/crafter who is the genius behind the online shop, The Gnarled Branch, famous for its redirected thrift store paintings and many unique crafts.

The idea was born in 2004 when Irvine repaired a discarded wooden table and transformed it into a beautiful functional art. The positive comments from his family and friends paved the way for Irvine to expand from traditional art into making furniture art. He also tried doing painting glass ornaments and when his wife was amazed by his unique artworks, they decided to start a business, thus the Gnarled Branch was created.

“David’s quirky and very popular style is created by repurposing unwanted prints or original art from thrift stores or found at yard sales and painted upon using his own style of creativity. Seemingly random subject matter including pop cultural references, political comment, the camp and the absurd, often combining all these elements to create truly original art pieces,” according to his Facebook page.
