Imminent, study
30" X 36" oil on canvas Original art is sold The story point ... Time is short and panic is setting in. Sarah, glimpsing a flash of motion from the corner of her eye, turns and is shocked at the sight. A wall of red is closing in ... hunting her. There's only one chance for escape. A large ocean swell washes over her head and she makes a desperate break for the shore. Writing has long been a integral part of Mark Heine's creative process. In the pursuit of his original artistic voice, Mark's writing has evolved to become the driving force behind his work and has led him to envision a world of his own creation. SIRENS, the culmination of 30 years exploration, is inspired by the sea-nymphs, made famous in Homer's Odyssey. Theses under-water visions of mythological muse are rooted in the moments of an on-going and developing fictional narrative. This complex narrative, involving human evolution and our natural environment, is the unifying conceptual thread that ties these surreal visions. Ultimately, the paintings will illuminate the completed book and will also serve as scale studies for larger, life-sized works, to be presented as a large scale show that will coincide with the launch of the book. |
