Darren B. Singer’s architectural paintings depict urban structures from the city where he grew up, rendered with expressive brushwork and a vivid palette. His subjects include elevated train tracks, industrial smokestacks, steel bridges, and historic brick buildings. The compositions often feature strong diagonals and upward perspectives, emphasizing the scale and geometry of the built environment.

He paints with acrylic and oil, using saturated colors such as deep reds, cool blues, and warm oranges. The surfaces are layered and textured, with visible brushstrokes that give the works a dynamic, tactile quality. Architectural details like trusses, beams, windows, and signage are carefully observed and integrated into the compositions.

Vegetation, street elements, and seasonal light conditions appear throughout the paintings, adding context and atmosphere. The scenes range from industrial zones to residential streets, with structures that include conical turrets, water towers, and elevated railways. Each canvas reflects a distinct moment in the city’s visual landscape, captured through Singer’s energetic and precise approach to painting.
