Darren's portrait of the Queen unveiled

Darren to paint the Queen.

Buckingham Palace has now confirmed the Royal Appointment of Darren Baker, and his much anticipated portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II is due to be unveiled this summer.

Her majesty will be sitting for the portrait in early May and June and it will be officially presented to her as part of the celebrations during this, her 85th birthday year. Darren has painted prime ministers, royalty and the sparkling elite and his celebrated works hang in collections from 10 Downing Street and the House of Lords to St James's Palace.

Darren appointed official artist for 2012 Olympics.

Darren's unique status was recently confirmed by two highly prestigious invitations. He has been appointed an official artist to the 2012 Olympic Games in London, and he has been commissioned to paint an official portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II, an accolade only accorded to a small number of painters in the monarch's lifetime.
