While walking through the Detroit Institute of Arts, I noticed this striking piece. I didn't take notes, but I believe it's either Assyrian or Mesopotamian. I like the monochromatic quality of it and thought it would be an interesting challenge to paint it while giving it a 3-d quality. I think it kind of works.
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
