Packrats? Guilty! We have a bunch of tchotchkes on the window sill in our kitchen. It started with a few interesting rocks we've accumulated over the years and has grown to the point where we have a hard time turning the window crank. The cars are these funky miniature vehicles from Africa made from recycled tin cans. One day I thought, "Hey, this scene might make an interesting painting." And? Well, you decide.
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
