Stimpy

"Stimpy, You Eediot!"

The recycled pieces of paper have been cut /torn from vintage magazines, packaging materials, old books, brochures and junk mail.

3 coats of gloss varnish will be applied to protect Stimpy. The gloss finish really makes the colours pop and gives the work a glassy finish.

Stimpy has a wire at the back with painted/collaged edges, so he is ready for your walls, or you may wish to add a frame directly through Bluethumb during purchase.

Thanks for checking it out. Cheers Darren

Based near Wollongong on the NSW East Coast of Australia, Darren King is a multidisciplinary artist working across collage, printmaking, mixed media, and painting. Over the past five years, he has honed a distinctive visual language that merges traditional and contemporary techniques.

Trained in Fine Arts, cartooning, illustration, graphic design, and screen printing, King combines elements from each of these disciplines to create bold, textural, and visually engaging works. Since refocusing on original mixed media art in 2021, he has developed a particular passion for collage.

Working primarily with recycled and repurposed materials - including discarded magazines, junk mail, maps, paper bags, and vintage books—King transforms the everyday into vibrant, layered compositions. His art captures the beauty of the ordinary and evokes a playful nostalgia, celebrating the local, the joyous, the tasty or the long-forgotten.

King’s work has been featured on Selling Houses Australia (Annandale 2025), earned multiple art awards, and been exhibited in numerous group shows and art prizes.
His artworks are held in private collections worldwide.
