Darnell Johnson, a Miami, Florida native, discovered his passion for art when watching Saturday morning cartoons as a kid. He would spend time designing his own characters and making comics about them. It was in high school Darnell knew he wanted to pursue a career in art.

Currently he lives in Alpharetta, Georgia with his beautiful wife and newborn son. Darnell pulls inspiration from his faith, family, friends and life to pour into his illustrations. He hopes the lines, colours, and shapes he makes, spark the imagination of young readers.
