Tweed & Area Heritage Centre: Show and Sale by Mark Robinson

Featured artist for the month of May, Mark Robinson is a self-taught artist and lifelong farmer based in Madoc, Ontario, whose deep connection to the land informs his work. After years in photography—where he developed a strong understanding of subject, framing, focus, light, and shadow—he turned to acrylic painting nearly 15 years ago. Working from a small studio on his farm, he creates evocative nature and landscape scenes inspired by hiking and canoeing, often drawing on his own photographic references.
