Mark Acornley Art & Photography
Thank you for stopping by my new website.   My journey with the arts started at a young age and wasn’t always one filled with joyful memories.   My first memory was using a paint by number set I received as a Christmas gift. In elementary school a teacher made fun of a clay elephant I attempted, and made and me cry, and I kind of ran away from being creative. I received my first camera at 12 and truly enjoyed taking pictures through the years. I gave up painting until I moved to Washington DC, to attend Wesley Theological Seminary, There I made some wonderful friends who were all in the arts. With their encouragement I rediscovered my love of painting. Having a studio, I could go to and paint whenever I wanted was so freeing. After graduating and moving into a small apartment I had to put away the paints. When I put away the paints, I picked up my camera again and started to focus on the art of photography. Fast forward almost 20 years later I am merging my art and photography into a love I would like to share with the world. I hope you enjoy my site, and if you see something that touches you or is just pleasing to you, please let me know. All artwork is original and all photographs are printed in a variety of sizes.

“In nature, light creates color. In painting, color creates light "(Hans Hofmann)
Mark's artistic work is a continuous research, it is an expression of inner growth and discovery, it is the way to observe the outside and peer inside himself. For Mark, art becomes the means to express himself and to feel free, in particular the freedom to experience emotions and fully savor life. Mark's abstract art is completely free of lines, shapes and figures, it totally escapes reality, it is purity of color and exaltation of it. In fact, color plays a fundamental role, it is the only protagonist of the work and is the means through which the artist intends to express himself. Mark's artistic work possesses great strength and evokes strong emotions. The main color is black together with blue, they are intense, strong, they combine with each other creating a strong contrast. The color is mellow, it seems to represent a storm and at the same time the work appears strongly balanced, the center of it is characterized by the blue color that gives calm to the whole work. In fact, Mark's work has a great visual and emotional impact, the viewer is captivated by the colors and emotions it transmits. Mark's artistic work is a condensation of energy and vitality. The encounter with the work of the artist Mark represents for the viewer a sort of exchange of emotions, those of the artist and those of the observer himself. Abstract art has the great task of escaping reality to go and creep into the most hidden corners, Mark succeeds in this purpose and brings out moods, memories and emotions. In the same way, however, it manages to make people reflect on current issues, so Mark's work becomes the starting point for food for thought. Through his art, the artist brings out his great skills, that is, his great pictorial ability and knowing how to use colors well, and that of being sensitive, of moving the observer. Ultimately, Mark's art represents a concentrate of energy, it is a true explosion of emotions and strength that finds a perfect balance between colors and sensations, between reality and abstraction, between good and evil.
