In my work, I try to capture the essence of a place to immerse the viewer or to remind him of old memories.
As a teenager from Sheffield, Mark was gifted in drawing, but ignored his teachers and chose architectural design rather than art school. Later, as a logistics manager, he took refuge in painting to escape the pressure and stress. A self-taught artist, he began selling his paintings and finally decided in 2022 to devote himself fully to his pictorial vocation. He has had several exhibitions in the UK and is now seeking to seduce the international scene while exploring new artistic worlds.
From the calm of the coast to the hustle and bustle of the city, Mark's work features uncluttered landscapes with unique moods and atmospheres. Even today, memories of his hometown inspire him, with its urban life, its incessant rain, its lights reflected on the roofs and hoods. Great names like Whistler, Monet or Picasso influence his graphic style. On the canvas, the artist roughly applies watercolor or oil with a fan brush before spreading it with a credit card or a checkered scraper. The hard edge that forms then helps her break up the lines and an ink roller adds the colors. His key words are minimalism and tonality, for him, the simpler his composition, the greater its impact. This is how Mark wishes to touch his viewers and make them travel with him in his panoramas and reminiscences.
