Poker Art Work
There are many talented artists that offer a wide variety of poker art work. From originals to limited edition prints, there are poker paintings that depict scenes from old poker movies to abstract works of art that feature modern day poker celebrities.
Darci Faulkner 's art is widely collected and has been honored with many national awards. Her poker art work is a testament to her talent and commitment to embracing new and challenging subjects. Where many artists embrace one style and adhere to it, Darci is always reaching for something new, challenging herself to learn. Darci's poker art work that includes a series of celebrity poker paintings combine digital technology and her experience in traditional painting. Reflecting an influence of the genre developed by Andy Warhol and Peter Max, her style, embraces a whole new approach of combining the image of several celebrities to capture a specific moment in time. "I was looking for a way to do something with my art experience and with my knowledge of computer technology and I found it." Not unlike her poker art work, characteristic of Darci's divergent styles, her sports paintings have been described as a marriage of the styles of Norman Rockwell and Leroy Neiman.
She is always exploring new techniques and avenues to create new images and works that combine her endless curiosity, knowledge of technology and love of color...lots and lots of color!
