about the artist
Darlene Newman is an illustrator and painter, but her work is often an offering and testimony to her faith journey. Through lively, stylized human forms and bright, expressive colors, she brings to life images of humor and positivity. Her joy in painting and interacting with others stems from a divinely purposeful space. She believes her work is a positive light in a world where it’s easy to find work that doesn’t seek good in difficult situations or complexity. Newman’s new paintings continue the narrative of work she’s made prior, to tell biblical stories, deliver personal testimony, and delve into the binary of good and evil in the world. She sees her artwork as an ongoing story of God’s love.
