Autorenporträt

Davis left the city more than fifteen years ago to build a 1930s-era farm in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. Changing from advertising art director to homespun whittler, painter, and sculptor, Davis escaped to begin his rustic life in Carthage, Missouri. An inductee into the Agricultural Hall of Fame and noted speaker on limited-edition collectibles, Davis continues his artistic trade of designing, sculpting, and painting for Schmid of Randolph, Massachusetts, and Border Fine Arts Studio in Scotland.
