Mark Newman was born in 1953 in Pontiac, Michigan. He was always artistically inclined, but for most of his early life he was a musician and then a craftsman, working in carved leather and wood. He moved to New York in 1982, where he lived for ten years before moving to Atlanta in 1992. There he met his wife, Stephanie, who was an artist at the time. She played an important role in Mark’s development and decision to become an artist himself. After discovering Mark’s talent in 1995, she convinced him to experiment with painting. With much encouragement and receiving a gift of his first watercolor palette, Mark began to develop his own style of painting. Completely self-taught, Mark had a tendency to paint very brightly. His discovery of marine tropical fish and wildlife as a subject perfectly fit with his imagination and artistic approach and now they are his passion. Although he takes some liberties with corals and sponges, his fish are painted accurately while still retaining his bright style. He tries to capture both the color and personality of his subjects in both his watercolors and seriolithographs. Mark is considered a master of the artistic depiction of reef fishes, with representation through Park West Gallery and a frequent participant in live-painting sessions aboard ships for Princess Cruise Lines.
