Derek Penix Works

Derek Penix in early 2021 was named "The Most Awarded Artist" in the country by Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine and ArtDataIntel.  Derek has been recognized in many national competitions and publications. He has won top awards in the American Impressionist Society, ARC Salon, exhibited in the famed Salmagundi Club in NYC & won the "Gold Medal Award" from Oil Painters of America 25th National Juried Exhibition, boasting a $30,000 prize just to name a few.

Over the years Penix's work has changed greatly and continues to evolve with each painting. "I never want to be stuck painting only one way or only one subject matter. Variety is what is exciting."

 Penix knew from an early age he wanted to paint for the rest of his life & now he is living his dream. Just entering his 40’s he has a long career ahead for us to enjoy his art!
