Darren has been creating art all of his life. Raised in an artistic household with his Grandmother and Mother acting as his first teachers.
Growing up in Chicago and studying art through traditional schooling, he became inspired by the masters while roaming the galleries of The Art Institute on the weekends. With years of service as a full-time Senior Art Director at a Chicago advertising agency, he learned the importance of Marketing and Design and business discipline. Traditional learnings, professional service, and love of music and nature come together to create his unique and original style. Darren is a full time artist living and working in Los Angeles, California.
