Working

Hello – my name is Darryl David Jensen and I would like to welcome you to my world. Ever since I was young I have been infatuated with art and the creative process. My mother would take me to the Brooklyn Museum of Art and it is there where I first was exposed to the painting Storm in the Rocky Mountains by Albert Bierstadt. I was amazed at the scale and detail of this piece of large original art and wondered how the artist was able to create such a magnificent piece. I would revisit this extra large painting again and again, and it would never cease to enthrall me. It inspired me to seek artistic instruction and explore all facets of the art world.

Over the years I independently researched a variety of mediums at museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of New York, the Pennsylvania Academy of Art, the National Art Museum, the Louvre, and the Musee D’orsay, to name a few. I took advantage of seminars, lectures, and symposiums to further understand the complexities of art and the artists that create them. Later in life, I gradually formed a new appreciation of modern art and its many styles, features, and characteristics. When I’m in the studio, my passion for creating large contemporary wall art takes over, and I feel privileged at the opportunity to convey what I envision to the viewer.

I am actively involved in art commissions online and site-specific artwork for a variety of projects. My large format paintings and murals would enhance any large architectural spaces such as corporate lobbies, boardrooms, hotels, casinos, cruise ships as well as the well-appointed home of the private collector.   

Clients have included Merrill-Lynch, Goldman and Sachs, Prebon Yamane, New York Health Hospitals Corporation, Kings County Hospital, Woodhull Memorial Hospital, Bayley Seton Hospital and the New World Power Corporation.

My work is in both public and private collections throughout the United States. If you would like to commission a piece of art or have questions about my way of working, I’d love to speak with you. Contact me to get the conversation going regarding my original fine art!
