The
murkyart
Story
Mark discovered drawing at the age of 40, by chance. There were a few pencils lying around and a pic of Johnny Cash on the cover of a magazine.

Mark did a quick 30 minute sketch. It didn’t look anything much like Johnny but he realised he could capture something and he has not stopped since.

Drawing mainly on music as inspiration, Mark expands on his charcoal portraits to make art with paint, graphic designs and fashion T-shirts.
