    I am in love with your Becorns! I just spent a LOT of money buying pictures for 4 of my Great Grand Children! I am 92 years old, and still love Fairy tales, and you make a new Fairy Tale every time you create a new picture....Keep up the wonderful work. God is Good

    What I absolutely adore about David's Becorns is that he brings out that "magical" feeling I used to feel when I was a child, when I thought about fairies and all that mystical world that's so fantastic and mostly mythological. That feeling that one day, you may encounter one of those beautiful creatures and all of the experiences you could have if only... That happened.
    So I'm VERY MUCH in Love with Becorns and everything around them is just wonderful. David is truly a creative artist, such unique perspective, very remarkable.

    The beauty in David’s story is that his “epiphany” came at a totally unexpected moment!
    Everything was so perfectly aligned in his universe! And now he gets to continue on his creative path that brings him & all of those fortunate enough to see his work, so much joy & happiness!! Even his formal training for medical tool design helped to get him where he is today!
    His awesome journey continues & hopefully we’ll all get to use our imagination whenever we see his work!!! Bravo David! Thank you for uploading this video👍🏻👍🏻🤗🤗

    I used to make a much cruder version of becorns with my friends when we were younger in the 90’s, didn’t have the tools to make faces or anything so everything was just glued together but it was a lot of fun and when you can’t afford to get actual toys it’s nice to be able to create an alternative

Now that I see this is the creator of those images I saw Back then and I can clearly see that I was being misinformed. I am really glad to learn the truth is much more kind and beautiful.
