More about Mark …
Line and colour is at the heart of Mark’s work and this is informed by sketching and plein air work. It is integral to the development of the piece and sometimes forming part of the work itself.
He continues to draw inspiration from the landscape and adores using colour while interpreting the light, contrast, weather and a love of the materials.
Mark developed his passion for Landscapes and Seascapes while growing up on the West Wales coast at Borth and Aberystwyth. The rolling hills of Shropshire and North Wales also enable him to experiment with colour and line further.
Mark exhibits work in numerous galleries which have included several solo shows, including at MOMA Machynlleth.
He is currently developing work for a large solo show at Oriel Môn on Anglesey for 2027
Mark has many works in private collections the UK, Europe, USA & Australia.
He runs painting workshops as well as regularly tutoring painting holidays in the UK, France and Italy.
He is an enthusiastic painting demonstrator for Art Societies throughout the UK and has become increasingly popular working both online and in person.
