Genesis, study
24" X 48" oil on canvas Available from the studio For information ... Contact us The story point ... In the beginning, there was happiness. It's Aerica's 13th birthday. Sarah had made the same promise for years: on the day Aerica became an adult, she would take her to the beach. To experience the Evolution. To bask in the golden glow of the sun, feel the warmth of sand between toes and breathe the perfumes of Thin-Air. All the very same reasons her ancestors had left Mother Ocean the first place, so many long generations ago. 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 44 years exploration, is inspired by the sea-nymphs, made famous in Homer's Odyssey. These underwater visions of mythological muse are rooted in the moments of an ongoing and developing fictional narrative. This complex narrative, involving human evolution and our natural environment, is the unifying conceptual thread that ties these surreal visions.
