Davy paints and draws in the style of social realism and portraiture, recognizable for his keen sense of light and color depicting both the human and non-human.
Davy spent his early years fine tuning his technique at a summertime apprenticeship at the mural studio his father owned alongside highly trained Russian and Chinese social realist academic style painters.
Davy notes that he helped paint the clouds visible on the ceiling of the New York Public Library before he began college.
[2] Davy's 2014 solo exhibition, "Candela," at the gallery 11R featured a series of intimately-scaled paintings of life-size candle flames.
[4] The exhibition, titled "Horses," was inspired by an old photograph the artist found which read “195 Chrystie Street, 1880” that belonged to his great-great-great-grandfather.
