Biography

Mark has a B.A. in English from Rutgers University and an M.A. in Fine Art from Kean University.

Mark began Traditional Studios in 2014 after working freelance with clients and commercial studios. His experience working on large public and private sculpture projects has helped him develop an understanding of the power of public art.

Mark's emphasis continues to concentrate his focus on his artistic technique.

Artistic Philosophy

“The Western artistic tradition is a living inheritance — one that demands both reverence and renewal.”

Working in the Neo-Classical tradition, Mark draws on centuries of sculptural knowledge while bringing a contemporary sensibility to each piece. Every work is an exploration of form, material, and the enduring human figure.
