While I was at the Pinery, I decided to take a hike one quiet afternoon. This tree with the ever present wild grape vines grabbed my attention. While painting it, I discovered just how hard it is to get the leaf color just right. After several attempts, I finally got it right. (Or close enough). I guess I'll just have to keep on trying.
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 around the country. 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
