26 Aug Darcy McCrae | Raw Honesty | Curatorial+Co. | Studio Insights

Darcy McCrae is a painter based in the beautiful hinterland of Northern NSW. A self-taught artist inspired by simplicity, colour and form, Darcy uses predominantly acrylics on canvas and linen, creating bold artworks in a lo-fi naïve style. Painting classic subjects such as still life and figures, his bold mark-making and tendency to throw the rules of painting out the window, result in works that are honest and raw. His paintings often begin as small studies and sketches, coming to life in his old mechanic’s shed studio.

We have put together a little Studio Insights film about Darcy’s painting life.
