About the Artist
Derek Collins is a full-time artist who makes his living selling his artwork at juried fine art shows. He participates in many of the top ranked shows throughout the country, in many of the major cities including Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Columbus, Cleveland etc. His award winning baseball abstract "You're Outta Here', is in the permanent collection of the National Museum of Sports Art in Indianapolis. He has appeared in print and has been interviewed on television regarding his work and profession. His acrylic abstracts feature geometric designs, they are filled with texture and color. They are painted in a series of layers and glazes. They are on double-primed stretched canvas, or a high quality watercolor paper.

His traditional work includes Acrylic and Watercolor sea/landscapes with dynamic skies, and bold textured leaf patterns. Derek believes painting should not be about how much detail one can put into a piece, but about setting a mood, entertaining the eye and telling a story. He began painting 20 years ago after a serious back injury. While being confined to a bed for 4 months, Derek began watching painting demonstrations on PBS. Six months later, he began selling his paintings and eventually he quit his job to pursue an art career. He is a self-taught artist who continually challenges himself to explore new techniques and styles. He strives for only the highest quality artwork through the use of top quality paints, double primed canvases or Arches watercolor paper. His signed/numbered prints are all Gilclee prints, with archival (100 year) inks, printed on top-grade Arches watercolor paper. He resides in southern Indiana with his wife and two sons. When he is not traveling to art shows, he can be found working in the art studio he built in the barn behind his home or fishing with his sons.
