A picture is worth a thousand words. So is the human face.
Every face tells a story. From household names, to fictional characters, to the everyday person, these portraits harness colour and texture to capture a cast of extraordinary tales.
I hope you enjoy.

Instagram Story
“Found this artwork amazing and just had to have it for my own portrait!! Reached out to Darren and he did NOT disappoint!!”

Private commission
“For years my husband has joked that he wanted a centaur portrait of himself. I found Darren's art on Reddit and after seeing his Instagram page, I knew I needed to ask him. Besides being an amazing artist, Darren is an excellent communicator. Throughout the entire process Darren was quick to reply and answer any questions. He was also very honest in what I could expect and made sure I was aware before proceeding. The painting ended up looking exactly as I imagined, and he completed it so quickly! If you're interested in commissioning art, I highly recommend working with Darren!”
