Mark Joseph Williams

Fine Art

Background

My journey as a fine artist began in 2001 after visiting the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts. God placed the desire and ability in me to paint art, and I began painting with oils through exploration, observation and study. Like my growth as a Christian, I consider my artistic education a lifetime work in progress. I work from both a traditional realistic perspective and a fluid contemporary approach, depicting nature through the many vivid colors and textures of God's land, skies and water. I am honored to be recognized by peers and industry organizations including the American Society of Marine Artists as a Signature Member. I am also a juried member of Oil Painters of America and the International Guild of Realism.

Artist Statement

Nature is the central focus of my artistic exploration in painting. Whether land, water or sky, I am drawn to the luminous qualities and strive to evoke that same brilliance in my works. Additionally, working with large formats, I can present a sensuality that results from the grand play of light, color, movement and process. Ultimately, my goal is to bring an artistic reflection of God's outdoor handiwork to the indoors.
