Original artwork description:

This painting explores further abstraction of the figures and gesture as well as intensity of color, especially red. I sat with this painting unsure for a spell but the response and the feedback that I got from art professionals and social media was overwhelmingly "yes!', 'it's finished!', 'love it!'.

This is an original, one of a kind artwork by Darren Jekel. It is signed on the front side and signed, titled, and dated on the back side. A Certificate of Authenticity is included. This artwork has hardware installed and is ready to hang out of the box.

Darren Jekel is an American oil painter from California and is emerging steadily in the bay area art scene. Solo exhibitions of his paintings include the notable Dolby Chadwick gallery in San Francisco and he has over 300 of his professional level artworks cataloged. Jekel is in the historical position of being both the student of the ground breaking pop artist, Wayne Thiebaud, and the leading member of the Bay Area Figurative movement, Manuel Neri. Jekel has an MFA degree in painting from the prestigious art school, Maryland Institute, College of Art. He is married with two daughters and lives in California’s wine growing region just north of San Francisco.

Materials used:
