As most everyone knows, Detroit was once one of the manufacturing hubs of the world. Sadly, the auto business isn't what it once was and the city is littered with old, abandoned factories. I've been trying to document them while they're still standing. And this is one of my favorite old buildings. I drive by it a couple times a week and wonder why it hasn't either been torn down, or repurposed. Here's a painting I did of it from a photograph.
My love of the arts began early on in life and was greatly influenced by an inspiring photography teacher in high school. I began teaching myself to paint in 2019 and have had my work exhibited in numerous shows in the Detroit area. One of the joys of being an artist is looking at the world in totally different ways and discovering a painting or photograph in a million unexpected places. For inquiries: dominmark@yahoo.com
