PROFILE
Mark Kitaen is a self-taught diverse artist, working in multiple
media for over 19 years. "I work as a digital artist, photographer,
graphic designer, acrylic painter, illustrator, and 3D mixed media
sculptural relief artist. My main art focus currently is working with
photography and computer graphics.
As a digital artist, I use computer-generated imagery with
my original photographic images. I like to make digital collage projects.
Mixing and merging up to several dozen photographic images, and multiple
computers at image layers within the design. I will seek out and photograph
specific images on location, to then be incorporated into my digital
art compositions. My style and art themes vary from conceptual, fantasy,
abstract, wildlife, domestic animals, botanical landscapes, ocean,
spiritual, motorcycles, aviation, automobiles and boats."
Photography has taken a more prominent role in his new art
business, "Special FX Photo". Marc does location
photography shoots, with green & blue backgrounds, together with
computer generated art theme scenes and artistic digital backgrounds.
He also spent nine years as a graphic designer and ten years as a
mixed media artist, creating mostly wall decorations incorporating
functional furniture.
Marc's artwork has exhibited in international gallery shows;
several one-person shows, been widely published and the TV Artist
Channel interviewed him and televised his sculptural relief artwork.
