My core values center on artistic excellence, craftsmanship, and authenticity. My platinum/palladium prints are unique for their rich tonal depth, archival quality, and a refined blend of traditional fine art and digital photographic mastery.
Mark Laurence LaRiviere
Painter & Photographer
I create images not merely to depict, but to evoke in the viewer transient emotions and fleeting sensations. The result is an idiosyncratic visual experience, involving both maker and viewer, that bypasses the need for words.
My abstract and figurative works are portals to feeling, designed to resonate deeply with your own experiences.
The emotional responses my art elicits from collectors – moments of joy, peace, or intrigue – are the very heartbeat of my creative practice.
This ersatz-charcoal and ink wash sketch depicts a singular dogwood tree that I walk past every day. After a recent snowstorm isolated the tree's dark limbs against the light background, it reminded me of a Franz Kline abstract expressionist painting. So I whipped out my iPhone and captured the scene that I used as the inspiration for this new digital drawing.
The resulting hi-resolution monochromatic giclée will be archivally matted and framed in either a white or black enamel painted wood (1/2") frame with UV blocking, shatterproof acrylic glazing. Or, if you work with a local frame shop, order the print without a matte or frame. I even ship it directly to your framer.
