Featured Artist: Mark Pugh

Mark R. Pugh began creating art at a very young age but has only recently pursued it as a full time profession. After earning a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from UVU, Mark decided to develop his artistic skills with help from his mentor, Jeffrey Hein. Despite his short time as a working artist he has already received awards in some of the top art competitions in the world. His style infuses traditional realism with a surreal dreamlike quality that allows him to explore concepts of psychology and spirituality.
