More about Marc Alexander
As well as being a master of grisaille oil painting, Marc Alexander is well known as a teacher and mentor to many artists. His artwork conveys not only a sense of truth that reveals the depth and beauty of his subjects, but also a quiet mystery that invites the viewer to look closer. As a teacher, he has generously shared the techniques, ideas, and experiences that have shaped his art and work ethic over many years. Marc’s aesthetic sensibilities have long drawn him to the art of fourteenth- to seventeenth-century Dutch and Flemish painters, yet his artistic process remains fresh, contemporary, and rooted in both traditional and modern principles.
