Mark Horton – “Downtown”

Mark Horton left a successful career in law to pursue his passion:  painting.  Using recognizable elements from many cities, Horton creates fictitious, harmonious compositions of Gotham.  In some of his oil paintings, dramatic lighting and shading suggest buildings looming behind the viewer.  Whether from a bird’s eye view or from a straight-on perspective, Mark Horton captures the vitality of an urban scene.
