*Backbone Cedars* – 30 x 40 – Acrylic on Canvas – $3,000

Daniel Marks is an Ames, Iowa based artist whose work draws inspiration from the 19th century Neo – Impressionists such as Vincent Van Gogh. Marks’ canvases are equally experimental, with a vibrant and an analogous color palette. The vibrancy and dimension breathe new life into Marks’ portrayals of the classic, mundane scenery of the rural landscape. Adhering to the style of the 20th century regionalism movement, Marks’ artwork adds the element of peculiarity into depictions of commonplace surroundings. The artist’s work plays with light and space to capture a distorted perspective. A 3D artist as well, Marks portfolio of exhibited works are enhanced with depth, creating the subtle inclusion of movement.
