Reception, November 8th, 6 pm
Paul and Cissy Marks have had a longtime love affair with Mexico starting in 1961 and continuing many trips throughout Mexico over the years. They have been coming to San Miguel for the past 13 years. The Paintings show the inspiration gained from the incredible beauty and atmosphere of the place.
Paul’s bold landscapes and cityscapes are informed by his career as an architect and his travels throughout the world. Cissy’s background in fashion illustration and graphic art combine to give original interpretations to her figurative paintings of flowers and cactus that are just to the left of real.

Galería Vermillion. Plaza Colonial, Hernández Macías or Canal, Saturday, 27 august · 18:00 – 20:00,
I’m not an idealist, nor (much of) a romantic; I don’t subscribe to any school or system or philosophy. I don’t believe that art should lift us above the grit and commonness of everyday life into a loftier realm, a higher plane.
