While he is self-taught, his degree in Art History greatly influences his creative process. Mark’s works are infused with elements of pop culture, absurdism, and humor, resulting in paintings that can be thought-provoking and unconventional. Rather than aiming to please viewers, his pieces often challenge them, encouraging deeper exploration.
