About Me

The Basics

Hi there!
My name is Mike Darnell.
Since early 2006 I create digital art prints which are displayed in a number of galleries on and offline. My online gallery is http://www.DigitalArtPrintGallery.com
I am an autodidact with extensive experience as a graphic designer, and have specialized in frontal business communications and website design.
I was born in Jerusalem in 1974. My formal education is a short stint at the department of Industrial Design in the Haddasah College.
I am currently Creative Director at Oleh.com , a member of the faculty at the School of Design at the Holon Institute of Technology and a consultant and lecturer at the Jerusalem's Business Development Center .
I was founder of Tria Design Studio. I have taught at the Faculty of Industrial Design at the Hadassah College in Jerusalem.
About my art: I like color. I love Jerusalem. I enjoy being able to get a serious message across with humor. I like the fact that my entire creative process is digital. I like keeping things simple…"
