Hey there! I’m Darius.
I’m an illustrator and educator based in Pennsylvania. I’ve had the pleasure of working on licensing art, box art, and concept art for Star Wars (Hasbro & LucasFilm), Indiana Jones (Hasbro & LucasFilm) Transformers (Hasbro), Sonic the Hedgehog (SEGA), Avatar: The Last Airbender (Paramount), Avatar: The Way of Water (Disney), and more. I also work freelance, specializing in book covers & illustrations, and have more recently returned to gallery art and traditional painting.
I graduated from Massachusetts College of Art & Design with Honors in 2022, earning my BFA in Fine Art (Illustration). Along the way I interned at Yellowfly, and was hired as an Illustrator right out of school. I cemented myself as a plucky, design-minded illustrator who exceled in patterns, licensing art, and portraiture.
I left Yellowfly in 2024 to found my own family store, Fish Sock. We specialize in the design & printing of garments for individuals, events, and businesses. This let me wear a lot of hats - I took business classes, designed our website, planned out our store layout and storefront, worked face-to-face with customers to bring their ideas to life, delivered local orders, and more.
I left Fish Sock in my family’s capable hands to move to Pennsylvania. I’ve been doubling down on freelance work and gallery work, excited to return to working as a full-time creative once again.
