ABOUT MARK FIELDING

home

Born in London in1961, Mark visited the West Country from an early age. But it was his three years at Exeter University that consolidated his love of the region and in particular a year living on the Exe estuary.

In 1994 Mark and his family moved to Cornwall. In 1998/9 he was fortunate tohave been taught by Robert Lenkiewicz, which reinforced his love of figure work. In 2005, Mark decided to paint dancers and his first efforts were so rewarding that this subject is central to his output. He is currently working with ballet dancers and Argentine Tango dancers.

Mark is constantly drawn to the sea. He has embarked on a project to portray Tamar and Lynher river where he lives. He was recently inspired by the visits of Turner to the area and exhibited some of his work at the Plymouth Art Gallery and Museum as a response to a major Turner exhibition at the Gallery last summer.

Mark also carries out Portrait commissions. Please contact us for details.

Mark exhibits widely throughout the South West and beyond. He was selected for the South West Academy Summer Open Exhibition at the Royal Albert Memorial museum, Exeter in 2003 and 2004.

Mark is exhibiting at Spring Fair 2007 where he is showing both marine and female figures, especially dancers.
