The palette knife allows him to control the thickness and direction of each line, lending a sense of dynamism and fluidity to his compositions.
Darby's choice of colors is equally deliberate. He often employs a limited palette of blues, greens, and yellows, evoking the sky, the sea, and the ephemeral beauty of dawn and dusk. These colors, combined with Darby's distinctive linework, create a sense of depth and atmospheric perspective, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the ethereal landscapes of his paintings.

Darby's paintings capture the graceful curves, sharp turns, and intricate formations of birds in motion, revealing the hidden rhythms and patterns that govern aerial choreography.
Through his expressive lines, Darby conveys the sense of weightlessness and freedom that comes with flight. The birds in his paintings seem to dance across the canvas, their movements frozen in time, yet exuding a palpable sense of energy and fluidity. Darby's ability to capture these fleeting moments and translate them onto a two-dimensional surface is a testament to his keen observation and artistic virtuosity.

Darby's paintings have the power to transport us to a realm of tranquility and wonder, inspiring a sense of awe and contemplation. The graceful movements of birds in flight evoke a feeling of freedom and liberation, reminding us of our own potential for transcendence.
Darby's use of color adds to the emotional impact of his paintings. The ethereal blues and greens evoke a sense of serenity, inviting viewers to lose themselves in the beauty of the natural world. The vibrant yellows, reminiscent of sunlight, instill a sense of warmth and optimism, reminding us of the endless possibilities that lie ahead.
