"Brushed Away by Dave" is more than just a name — it’s a reflection of David Serrecchia’s personal journey through loss, healing, and rediscovery.
After losing his beloved wife Kathy, who gave him 36 beautiful years of love, family, and purpose, Dave found himself facing a quiet loneliness that no conversation or distraction could seem to fill. The world around him had changed, growing faster and more distant, and he struggled to find his place in it.
But when Dave picked up a paintbrush, something unexpected happened: each stroke seemed to lift a little bit of the heaviness from his heart. Painting became a way to brush away the sadness, the restless energy, and the sense of being lost. With every new canvas, he found a little more peace, a little more gratitude, and a new connection to the memories, love, and beauty that still surrounded him.
Drawing on his lifelong passion for craftsmanship — first honed in the jewelry world, where every design told a story — Dave now tells stories through his paintings: everyday sights, quiet streets, familiar buildings, and unexpected moments that catch the eye and calm the soul.
"Brushed Away by Dave" stands for the therapeutic power of creating, the quiet healing that happens when you turn grief into beauty, and the enduring love that continues to guide his steps every day.
