Darren MacPherson

Darren MacPherson is a contemporary figurative artist whose acrylic
and spray paint works are bold and full of colour. His frequent use of
high key colours can be jarring, even startling to a first-time
observer. The negative space in the composition used merely to
emphasise the foreground; this is the part of his work that he spends
most time on, adding layer upon layer of content. Darren’s colours
bounce off the canvas and his chaotic, sometimes erratic, strokes make
for abstract suggestions of the male and female form. Inclusion in
prestigious events such as FLAGSTOP in Los Angeles, the inaugural
Other Art Fair in London and the 2011 National Open Art Exhibition are
cementing MacPherson as an artist with a growing reputation.
