John S. Darling
John S. Darling (August 17, 1911 – August 23, 2007), was a prominent Virginia based artist was born in McLean, Virginia. Darling originally wanted to be a writer, having had many stories floating through his head, but poor spelling led him to tell his stories through the visual arts.
== Childhood ==
Darling's family had settled at Dahlgren where his father was hired as a surveyor at the naval base. His mother, a very proper and cultured woman, insisted that her three children be exposed to the world, including great literature and the arts, which were especially dear to her, as the family lineage was made up of many artists. At a very young age Darling's photographic visual memory revealed itself and coupled with his creative mind, he worked on a blackboard telling stories. At church he would doodle in a bible often causing the congregation to focus on him rather than the sermon. He was an energetic, impetuous and curious child. Childhood scraps convinced his parents that Jack needed the discipline of a boys’ school, so off he was sent to Christ Church School, near Urbanna. It was an experience he savoured for the remainder of his life. He said: "At the school, I read, drew and painted, and got up before dawn to sneak out of the dorm and take a small boat we had hidden in the bushes growing out over the river. I would go crabbing and fishing, and would sell what I caught to earn my pocket money."
