Mark Fletcher is an artist whose paintings tell stories. The stories are of us as seen through the eyes of a youth who moved about, living in various regions of the country. In 1974, he was enrolled at Trinity College School, Port Hope, ON and began a
casual study of painting and art history. His interest in the arts continued into university and flourished into a full time career.
Mark's paintings seem to extend beyond their physical bounds. They live with you and perhaps even haunt the
viewer. The suggested movement is dynamic and they evoke feelings, which cannot be forgotten or overlooked. His use of vivid colour creates a joy that emanates from his canvases.
The minimal landscapes that he creates are personal and sensitive.
In all of Mark's paintings there is a clear graphic statement, finely defined. As a viewer his works, first on a visceral, captures your level and then intellectually and spiritually.
As well as his art Mark also tours and performs
with his Celtic group Steel City Rovers doing music concerts throughout eastern Canada and the NE United States. You can follow the group and their music at www.steelcityrovers.com and Marks music alone at www.markfletcher.ca.
