Mark Durham
Santa Fe artist Mark Durham doesn’t take things at face value—He’s always looking for the truth that lies beneath the surface. It’s not surprising, then, that Mark is more concerned with capturing on his canvas what the subject IS rather than what he LOOKS like. With his own quirky sense of humor and a nod toward the heroes from whose lives And work he draws inspiration, Mark produces portraits of people, animals and landscapes as they populate the world of his imagination.
His paintings are about fun: Having Fun, Being Fun and Sharing Fun.
Since graduating from the University of Georgia, Durham has continued his art education by studying with artists at several colleges while exhibiting his work at various galleries, festivals, trade shows where he has claimed top prizes.
