About Mark Millsted
Like my life my art is always under reconstruction. My world is currently abstract and although has a lyrical dimension in space. I like to push and pull the pictorial elements so something is moving or creates a spacial tension with drawing and colour. The beginning to each piece may have a passing observation which is translated and progressed into a series, the original in essence remains.
My influences include Christine Merton, Sutherland, Samuel Palmer, Richter, Schrienberg, Anselm Kieffer, John Davies, A K Kitaj, Blake is work a mention, Dawson Murray, Gaudier-Brzeska and many others... I also collect art to.
