About mikedarnell1974 / Mike Darnell  

My name is Mike Darnell.

I do art 'cause it makes me happy!
Everything else is a bonus...


I'm always looking for new people and new images to work with. If you have images you'd like to suggest I use in my artwork, or projects you'd like to collaborate on drop me a line
: )

I was born in Jerusalem in 1974 and lived there until 2008. I now live in Herzliya, outside Tel Aviv. I am an Israeli Digital / Pop Artist.

The subjects that interest me and inspire my art are:

- Middle East politics
- Judaism and religion
- Eroticism and its usage in media and advertising
- Technology, urbanism and their relation to nature.

My process involves fiddling with images and creating digital collages out of them. I like color. I love scenery. I like being able to get a serious message across with humor. I like the fact that my entire creative process is digital. I try keeping things simple, but often fail...

You are welcome to visit my website: DigitalArtPrintGallery.com, follow me on Twitter, or read my blog.

To pay the bills I currently teach at the HIT's School of Design, work at semantic web startup headup.com, & at Jerusalem's Business Development Center.
