The Detroit Boat Club had been largely neglected for at least ten years. The city owns the historic club, and over the past several years, started fixing the place up. We toured it recently because my oldest daughter was considering getting married there. I took a bunch of photos of its beautiful architectural details. These ornate seahorses adorn one of the staircases and I felt deserved to be committed to canvas.
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
