Joel H. Mark began as a chemist. It is this analytical background and extreme attention to detail that lends a unique angle to the detail that people see in his work.Intuition plays a strong roll in the artist's approach, as he wants to create a piece that allows viewers to bring their own experience and thoughts to his work. "It's part of the reason I don't name anything," says Joel. "I want people to see my work and embrace any feelings that come up. I want them to be so moved that they say that they have to own the piece "

His formal study began at the Institute of Design in Chicago, and he went on to hone his craft at the nationally recognized program at Orange Coast College, Costa Mesa, California.

His work has appeared in numerous publications including West Hollywood Magazine, Santa Monica Magazine, Santa Monica Business magazine, Downbeat and LA Reader. You may have heard about his recent showings at Bakery Art Exhibitions (The Jazz Bakery, Los Angeles, California), which allowed patrons to view his music and architectural pieces.
