Glazed Pink 2

Inspired by deliciousness.

'Glazed Pink 2' is a paper collage original artwork created from cut and torn paper, recycled and repurposed. It is a painting made from paper, not paint.

The details are made from discarded kids books, maps, brochures, magazines and junk mail. This piece also has a designer element and includes some pink Chanel tissue paper. All bits are torn, cut and reassembled to create this textured one of a kind original artwork.

2 coats of high gloss varnish have been applied to protect the artwork.

The gloss finish really makes the colours pop and gives the work a glassy (glazed) finish. It has a wire at the back with painted edges so it is ready for your walls, or you may wish to add a frame directly through Bluethumb after purchase.

Thanks for checking it out. Cheers Darren

Based near Wollongong on the NSW East Coast of Australia, Darren King is a multidisciplinary artist working across collage, printmaking, mixed media, and painting. Over the past five years, he has honed a distinctive visual language that merges traditional and contemporary techniques.

Trained in Fine Arts, cartooning, illustration, graphic design, and screen printing, King combines elements from each of these disciplines to create bold, textural, and visually engaging works. Since refocusing on original mixed media art in 2021, he has developed a particular passion for collage.

Working primarily with recycled and repurposed materials - including discarded magazines, junk mail, maps, paper bags, and vintage books—King transforms the everyday into vibrant, layered compositions. His art captures the beauty of the ordinary and evokes a playful nostalgia, celebrating the local, the joyous, the tasty or the long-forgotten.
