Earth and Fire Gallery Our welcoming reception for our new Guest Artist, Milwaukee-based artist Mark Wojno will be Saturday the 18th at 6 pm. Do stop by for food, drinks and possibly a fire! Mark explores ideas and emotions of “stark beauty” through oil paintings of the Chihuahuan desert and industrial landscapes of Milwaukee and Chicago. Originally trained as a cultural anthropologist, this mostly self-taught artist has always been sensitive to visual elements of different cultures. Spending his time between Terlingua and Milwaukee, he depicts vast spaces and light punctuated by simple but dramatic built and natural forms, evoking a sense of solitude and silence. This pattern is especially evident in his representational landscapes of the Big Bend.
