Art And Oysters

Having grown up in a military family, Marc’s youth was spent on the move. He was born in Oxnard, California, and spent some of his early school years there. But his geographical resume soon included Alaska, Florida, Arkansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Norway. After his father retired from the Air Force, Marc’s family settled in the small northern California community of Loomis. Marc began college as a biology major, but soon applied to and was accepted into Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, majoring in illustration. After Art Center and a brief stint as a staff illustrator in Sacramento, California, Marc moved to Minnesota, where he lived for 33 years, raising a family and pursuing his art. Marc has recently lived in Colorado and Mississippi before settling down on Tybee Island, GA. He has shown his work in galleries and museums nationally and internationally since the early 1980’s. He is a Master Signature Member of The Oil Painters of America (O.P.A.)
