Mark Heine, a talented artist from Canada, this year has completed the series of paintings "Sea Sirens", which was started 5 years ago.
“Five years ago I challenged myself and my entire 32-year career - I decided to try in a new art genre for myself - magic realism. Sirens are a modern interpretation of the mythical creatures described in Homer's Odyssey. My paintings are paired with artistic descriptions, which gives additional visualization to this magical world. Each picture is a part of an amazing story about the life of the sirens, I hope in my work everyone will find their own story and meaning. "
Mark Heine.
In 1961,
Mark Heine was born into a family that was always driven by the creative. His
father and mother were both applied artists and designers, operating a massive
warehouse studio in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The making of art on a grand
scale was around every corner. Mark’s childhood was spent wandering through the
studio, absorbing the progress and process of the monumental projects underway.
It was art by the ton, measured in yards, not inches, and worked in all matter
of media ... plaster, resin, concrete, fibreglass, wood, stained glass,
tapestry – and, of course, paint. It’s what all the family did and does to this
day ... art. Even the family vacations were spent sketching the architecture or
immersed in the great galleries of the world. His work has also been featured
in numerous publications, including International Artist Magazine, The Artist’s
Magazine, Studio magazine, Magazin’Art, Applied Arts magazine, Geo Magazine,
New York Optimist magazine, Focus magazine, and a number of newspapers and
television features. An accomplished instructor, Mark’s seminars on his
technique and unique approach are in demand and have been hosted by various art
groups in North America and Europe.
