Biography - D. J. Kava has been an Artist almost 25 years. In his words he replies, "First I was a farm boy, then a carpenter working for my barn building father, then overlapping careers as a weatherman, automotive historian and Artist. It all has echoes in my art." For the last seven years he's been a full time Artist and Historian. He is also a collector of "Found Object" material, various odd ball pieces found in nature, culture and often junk. He studies it, considers its' form, then conjures up what he calls an Aberrant Thought.
