You just never know where you'll find something worth painting. As it turns out, I spotted this little vignette in front of our house. One of the utility companies tagged the sidewalk for some work they had planned. It's cryptic nature reminded me of ancient runes for some reason. I took a snap of it and filed it in my "to do" bank of images. I finally got around to committing it to canvas. I couldn't get the color of the spray paint quite as neon-like as the original, but you get the idea.
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
