ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Deep Roots is part of a series depicting sports and athletic competitions. As in most of my paintings, I use subdued colors and loose brush strokes in order to create the mood and feel of spontaneity. Art buyers may see a symbolic reference to prominent 20th century American painters like George Bellows, John Sloan, Isabell Bishop, and Edward Hopper.  12 x 16 original Urban Realism oil painting on panel by Darren Thompson.  AWARDS and SHOWS 100 Curators Collection Saatchi Online 2012 Oil Painters of America National Juried Exhibition 2010 Chicago Artist Coalition Group Show 2008 Society of Illustrators 2001, 2002 Laguna Beach Echoes and Visions 2002 Louisville Art Association 2002 American Visions 2002 Hoosier Salon 2002 ARTICLES AND PUBLICATIONS Southwest Art Magazine Artist to Watch 2005 Art of the West 2002 Best of American Oil Painters, Volume 2, 2009 CORPORATE COLLECTIONS Harris Bank Hickory Point Bank

Before I became a painter I spent 15 years honing my skills in the field of illustration. Doing editorial work for various publications. I began to transition to fine art in 2003. At that time I rented studio space to a great painter named C.W. Mundy. It was a great learning experience to have someone of his caliber right down the hall. I learned quite a bit which leads me to where I am today. My paintings are urban scenes taken from here in Chicago. I also use my art skills in the classroom as well. I use it as a visual aid for teaching students in special education for the Chicago Public Schools.
