Mark Mulhern‘s Blue Bicycle at the Beach, oil on canvas, 60×70 inches, illustrates an activity filled, lighthearted day at the beach.  Inspired by travel, visits to the beach, and every day people, Mulhern’s style captures a mood with minimal, abstracted detail and colorful accents.  Introspective but unselfconscious, this freely painted work is filled with subtle gestures that invite contemplation on the part of the viewer.  Mark Mulhern will have his 7th solo exhibition in the gallery April 15th through May 14th.  We will be showing Mulhern’s Bathers series at Art Chicago, March 29th through April 2nd.  Click here to see more of Mark Mulhern’s paintings.
