"The Burst of Spring," Art Exhibit by Gene Mark

Gene Mark and her family reside in Lemont, Illinois. She actively exhibits her art locally and internationally in solo and group shows. She is a member of Lemont Artist Guild.

Ever since high school photography was part of Gene Mark’s life. At first, photography was a leisurely pastime and hobby that brightened the prosaic, day to day life of a chemical engineer. With time, the hobby grew into a serious endeavor. The artist was fascinated by the ability to emphasize details through photography. Through these accents she expresses the main idea of the art piece.

The artist continues her passion depicting in her art the most subtle elements of the surrounding nature. She has become more proficient in her work and her interest in macro photography lead her to look for answers at professional level while studying at New York Institute of Photography and exploring literature of notable authorities.
