Darren Turner

Thank you for taking the time to visit my British Artist Club page. I am a self-taught artist with a vivid imagination, inspired follow a horse-riding accident I experienced during my service in the British Army, which resulted in PTSD and an acquired brain injury. My artistic journey began at my bedside, where I started drawing portraits from photographs for anyone who requested them. Eventually, I relocated to the North East of England and became a member of a local Art Society. This provided me with the opportunity to showcase my work alongside other talented artists from the Tyne and Wear area. While my newer creations maintain the same imaginative spirit and creativity I possessed in my early days, my artistic techniques have evolved and played a pivotal role in my personal growth. I now strive to create images that captivate viewers and serve as focal points, rather than simply depicting a specific narrative.
