The Art of Mark Bryan

Post by l05tfr33k7 »

well Mark Bryan is an artist. i just found his work a few days ago. ive only seen a few of his paintings but some of them are very interesting/ artistic. I particularly enjoyed the "politics and religion" and the "nature" sections.

im not gonna post his paintings here atm so just check out his site:

Very very interesting style, not too sure if I'm fond of it though.

yup same here.
i like the fact that he portrays many of his ideas in one painting (or at least the political ones)
and of course i like how I agree with him politically :roll:

i don't find his work much different from the political satire that's shown in the papers

it's colorful and creative though

Seen some of it before, quite interesting and unique in it's own way. Allthough in some works i think he's taking his uniqueness a bit too far.

Yes, the line is there. It's not like a, general line, but a line every viewer of the work draws for himself.

So i was merely expressing my own opinion.

imo, He's going that far in some works, that it loses the entire meaning/essence behind it. Again, this might not be the opinion of the majority.

My point was that saying he's "taking his uniqueness a bit too far" is kind of contradictory. The word unique suggests nothing else like it exists. Now, if you're not like anything else, you define the reality. As such, he can't be taking it "too far" if there are no set bounds.

My using of the word uniqueness obviously refers to his personal style, and my opinion of over-doing that.
