About Me

Hello, my name is Darren Conerly and I am a self taught artist that after a 20 year hiatus, have returned to my passion for creating pencil art. This is something I grew up doing and always loved it but then life happened. I thought family and a career had to be my only focus so I put it to the side. Thanks to a very supportive wife and some amazing friends, I have rediscovered my passion.

During my hiatus, I became a graphic designer and photographer. With that, I got to explore many of the same principles that apply to drawing. I also got to learn so much about wildlife which I can share with drawing from my photographs.

So from my little corner of the world in SW Washington to everyone else in the world that I have gotten the pleasure to meet and will meet in the future, thank you for joining me on this journey. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
