Residing in the small northern town of Southampton, Canada since 2015 Darlene Watson is an abstract contemporary artist that creates large-scale and smaller works using acrylics and mixed media. This artist's informal, spontaneous gestural and thoughtfully placed brush strokes show her energy as an abstract painter. With these brush strokes and sometimes using only her hands, she adds layers of vibrant or earth-toned works with shapes, lines and colour. Commissions are often considered by Darlene where she can add personal touches and script to the originals that bring joy to the collector and have personal meaning.
Darlene is a self-taught artist from her Interior Design consulting background.

Her works are collected worldwide and have found homes in Switzerland, Singapore, Austria, Kuwait, Ireland, Scotland, the UK, Canada and the United States.

Her works are a process for her to place constant thoughts on a surface. The natural setting in her outside world holds hands if you will with her imagination so she can create joy with shape, colour and line.
