Hi! I’m Mark and I’m from the UK. I’m a self taught abstract artist and love fluid art. I love art and creativity and I’m passionate about sharing what I learn along the way and I’m grateful for your support.

I also have a diploma in art therapy and mental health first aid. I’m also a certified meditation coach and enjoy injecting these practices into my art.

Nature is a huge inspiration for me when I create. One of the main things I love about abstract art is interpretation - we all see different things and I enjoy listening and learning about others view points. The fluid art community is amazing and I love to teach and be part of it as an artist through my own creativity, growth and evolving styles.

Hello Mark. Again beautiful colors. After varnishing will this paintig be gorgeous. I can imagine how the gold shines and the blues pops up ❤. I see a landscape where the river meets the see😂. There are sand islands, riverheads, meanders, sea holes with the dark blue color, the sea and the spaces where the water and sand changes the color to the turkois... I am missing absolutly nothing. It is perfect exactly as it is. Don' t change it 😉.

Beautiful painting! I adore the ocean/water colors!!! Not sure about embellishing. I love sea turtles so that would be my first thought to put on top…as stencil or some version of another pour.

This is so beautiful Mark!!! Looks like a shallow spot in the ocean. And it isn't missing anything, but if you feel like embellishing it, maybe you want to add two or three small sea turtles? I also liked the design after you wrecked the big golden puddle. Looked like a flower. It was fun to watch you like always and BTW, your relaxing music is great 🖒💖

HELLO Mark!! 🥰 I love the ocean piece. I'm surprise to the result with the open cup. The design are sooo beautiful. 💙💙💙 One question for you. Why you don't have many cells when you do this technic? I love this piece but je suis curieuse de voir ce que tu vas faire comme embellissement. Si tu demandes, je crois que c'est parce que tu as envie d'essayer quelque chose avec cette toile. Go for it!!! 😜❤ Je te souhaites des belles journées jusqu'au prochain tuto. 🌈⛱️ Merci Mark tu as réussis à calmer une partie de mon angoisse avec ce video. 🤗🌸🌺🌸🌺🦋

Hi Mark, I really like this piece! I would emphasize the part where the gold shines through so beautifully with additional gold accents. Maybe with glue and gold leaves? I just did a painting like that (spiral) and I really like it! :) It gives it that special touch of shine and elegance... But your basic painting already says a lot! ❤️👍🏻❤

Hi Mark. I wouldnt touch this one. But maybe try some gold or silver leaf for a tad bit of embellishment if you decide to do it. See how that would add a little more pop to the painting.
