Los Angeles, Ca. Inspired by master wood-engravers of the thirties and forties, David Trulli works primarily in scratchboard. Unlike traditional scratchboard, Trulli works on wood panels, often quite large by scratchboard standards. In his work David Trulli carves stories of modern urban life and illuminates the beauty, wonder, angst and terror of living in the modern, technological world. A former cinematographer, Trulli decided to pursue his art full time in 2003. He has been profiled in the L.A. Times and his work has appeared on the cover of ArtScene magazine and in Juxtapoz magazine. Trulli was born in 1960 in Ossining, New York and came to Los Angeles in 1979. He currently resides in Los Feliz, and has a studio in Hollywood. David Trulli is represented by the Robert Berman Gallery in Santa Monica, California. Studio visit and interview with David.
