Scroll down the page to see Mark's pictures of The River Ouse and City Walls .
Resident artist at The Braithwaite Gallery in York, Mark is a self-taught artist, working in watercolour, oil, acrylic and pastel.
He has become a well known tourist attraction in the city over many years, painting outisde in the streets of our beautiful city!
His vast portfolio cover subjects as diverse as cityscapes, telephone boxes and dancers!
Ths section features Mark's recent fascination with the city's changeable light conditions, particularly over the river.
Each is still easily recognisable as Mark's work, with its attention to detail and bold Impressionist colours, however these pictures mark a move away from Mark's previous York pictures. The Classic York collection documents York's landmarks in lifelike detail, whereas the river and season studies try to capture fantastic light and cloud conditions that may only exist for a few moments!
Mark has tended to paint in acrylc on canvas whilst painting outdoors, as acrylic has the benefit of drying quickly and being resilient to Yorkshire's changeable weaher conditions! On sunny summer days in the city you may have seen Mark painting in watercolour !
Mark's trademark black cat, Lucy, makes an appearance in almost all of Mark's cityscape pictures.
