These studio notes are scraps of poetry and ideas that feed my work as a painter. I hope they establish a bit of context for the paintings and my intention in making them. Whatever I paint, I’m trying to create some space for us to sit with the questions that are not meant to be answered. These paintings are available for sale. Please email me [horst.mark@gmail.com] for a price list and shipping options.
