Artist Bio: Mark Handford |
Hi, 2016. Like many artistic people I have played with paints and other mediums throughout my life (a pencil/paintbrush in hand on and off since primary school). Always waiting for the time and opportunity to explore creativity and to better develop a level of expertise. The time arrived to escape my day job and the Linden Postcards Exhibition was my first foray into public exhibit. Wanted to do something small and unusual/personal. Not sure about a definitive style as yet but tending towards a loose Realism or somewhat... detailed Impressionism, if there is such a thing. Sometimes serious, other times funny/quirky. 2018. Starting to see more of me in works...which includes an interest in construction fabrics. 2019. Spending more time drawing to develop a bank of work but will also develop up some ideas for show entry. My hat goes off to the tenacity of serious artists...broadly, it's a tough gig! Mark |
