The Sensual Life with Olive Trees (2026)Charcoal drawing
by Darren Jekel
£892.42
Original artwork description
This drawing is very intuitive and is an adventure. I love Van Goghs ink landscape drawings and I sometimes practice my draftsmanship by attempting to copy them mark by mark. I relate to his technique but its instructive to really try to get inside his head... In the background of this work I inserted one of his olive tree drawings into my Elen's Circus series.
This is an original, one of a kind artwork. It is signed on the front side. A Certificate of Authenticity is included. This artwork is framed in a simple black frame with plexiglass protection. 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.
