The context of his work he describes as “Simple expressions of complex thoughts, created by capturing the physical mixed with the spiritual.” He seeks to evoke a feeling rather than a defined image. Referring to his work as “Absence and Presence” refers to how something or someone can be gone, but a presence remains. Mark’s application of paint is an extension of that thought process. Using traditional brushes along with palette knives, rags and even his hands, he continuously builds up and tear down the surface, adding and subtracting, stripping away layers to achieve greater clarity of emotion. He uses primarily oils and encaustics. Each layer adds to the narrative and depth. Sometimes a painting must go through many deaths, in order to be born again. “During this creative process, I lose my attachment to the end result, this allows me to create freely and openly as possible and to communicate where the conscious and the unconscious intertwine”.

Mark’s paintings are inspired by the intensely personal and introspective journey of life and it’s ever changing complexities. Mark describes his work as, "Absence and Presence” capturing the physical mixed with spirituality on canvas. A chemistry of lyrical abstraction with frenzied marks, many of which previously lay hidden, buried beneath strong layers of self-taught expression. Mark’s paintings aim is to engage a dialog with the spiritual and allowing the viewer to explore their own interpretation. He seeks to evoke a feeling rather than depict a defined image. His process includes continuously building up and tearing down, adding and subtracting. He uses primarily oils and encaustics to create thickly layered canvases. A visceral dance between the conscious and the unconscious until the emotion is expressed. His influences range from Alberto Giocametti, Anselm Keifer and Cy Twombley. His works are collected by many private and corporate collectors around the world, including Hong Kong, Japan, Dubia, Europe and the United Sates.
