Mark M. Mellon has been painting and creating artwork since 1998. After graduating high school that year, he decided that learning the disciplines of being an artist worked best when it was self taught. He studied and learned through using books and information online, Not only about art and it’s history, but also immersing himself into independent study of philosophy, psychology, mythology as well as just simply trying to live life as a human. His artwork has always been an extension of his subconscious thoughts, imagination and an attempt to interpret the universal conscious field. Where he can not communicate in words, he hopes to pass on images to make the viewers think and question, hopefully seeing something new about themselves and life. Working in various and media, his work reflects surrealistic, abstract and expressionistic values with a presence all it’s own.
