“The
Faraway Tree books had an incredible influenceduring childhood on my
imagination and work. I have painted the tree with all the characters
that live inside it, and the Land Of Goodies visiting the top; full of
bustling creatures, colour, fun and magic. It was a dream to illustrate,
painted with kind permission of the Enid Blyton estate.”

Kerry Darlington at Smart Art Galleries

December 11th, 2012

KERRY’S BEGINNINGS

Kerry Darlington is a Welsh artist, born 1974 in Rhyl, North Wales. She was heavily inspired by magical fairy tale picture books and stories during her childhood, and had a particular love for Arthur Rackham’s intricate pen and ink work. This influenced her to take a degree in Illustration, with intentions of becoming a children’s book Illustrator. Following this she discovered ‘Art Nouveau’ and the Pre-Raphaelite artists’. She found this work so hauntingly beautiful that it absorbed her and it still has a profound effect on her own art.

GROWTH & RECOGNITION

For the last seven years Kerry has built a reputation for her original, decorative designs which became hugely popular, focusing primarily on trees and nature.

She recently took the decision to release her book Illustrations as Unique Edition prints – the ‘Midnight Garden’ sold out within a month and her ‘Mad Hatters Tea Party’ was so popular that it sold-out rapidly before obtaining high values on the secondary market. Her book illustration work is next to include ‘Peter Pan’ by J.M. Barrie and ‘The Magic Faraway Tree’ by Enid Blyton.
In May 2012 she was awarded ‘Best-Selling Published Artist’ at a ceremony by the Fine Art Trade Guild.


TECHNIQUE & STYLE

On her original pieces, Kerry works with texture, acrylics and resin. She works in layers to build up depth and create more light. She uses resin as a medium rather than a varnish on the original paintings.

With her ‘Unique Editions’, whilst in essence they are prints, each one is some way unique. She creates small 3D additions which are hand-worked individually and adhered to the print. The background is also hand embellished, and all the work has resin hand-applied, making each print look like an original painting.

Kerry Darlington was born in a coastal town of North
Wales. Kerry’s passion for art was inspired by a love of beautiful old
picture books (Rackham, Dulac and Beardsley were favorites and later on,
Pre-Raphaelite painting and Art Nouveau). This developed into a degree in
illustration in 1996, originally intended to lead to a career in book
illustration.Following University she worked in S.America before returning to
the UK to work as a designer and illustrator for an exclusive company,
specializing in sculptured clay murals for private residences in the Middle
East, United Arab Emirates and the USA.Kerry now works independently from her
studio at home in North Wales, using all of these influences and her
flexibility to create pieces of art in a variety of subjects.
