MARK ASMUS    oil painter

Millicent Rogers Museum Exhibit and Sale

 

  About the Artist:

                                   
                        


I entered the art world through the back door.  No watercolor set as a four-year-old.
No prodigious art awards as a teenager.  No MFA.  Instead, my sheepskin reads BS
Metallurgical Engineering.  Although my artistic bent lay dormant for almost 60 years,
I am making up for lost time.

The process of creating, from the conception of the idea to the completion of the work
and everything in between, is very gratifying to me.  And, I love the people with whom
my art brings me in contact as well as enjoying drawing attention to beautiful,
interesting and humorous Taos. 

I paint with a palette knife on birch panel because it gives me a highly textured surface
with depth, looseness and hard edges.
