Revision as of 05:27, 19 October 2012 by Qworty (talk | contribs) (streamlining)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Mark Innerst (born 1957 in York, PA) is an American painter. Innerst is known for his modernist paintings of New York City and his small landscape paintings that harken back to American 19th-century Luminism.
The curator Katherine Gass has linked Innerst's work to the landscapes of American painters James McNeil Whistler and Winslow Homer.
Innerst paints in acrylic on board and oil on canvas. He builds layer upon layer of paint onto the surface, which he keeps flat on a table as he works. Paintings are ultimately glazed and joined with a frame custom-made by Innerst. He also creates many preliminary photographs, drawings, and painted studies. He usually underpaints his paintings in bright red.
