Dr Atomic and his first Encounter By Mark Richard Parkin Oil on Canvas 2022 Signed - SHIPS FROM Cardiff UK This oil painting depicts the first in a series of mysterious encounters between the fictitious Dr Atomic and his continuing sojourn within a surreal world. The vivid colours and dreamlike landscape invite you to explore a world where time flows oddly, with a sense of curiosity and wonder, sparking endless stories about Dr Atomic and his future encounters within the unknown. Mark Richard Parkin is a multidisciplinary artist with classical training, whose background spans prestigious art education in Canada, Europe, and the UK, and extensive international teaching experience. His work integrates traditional oil, watercolour, drawing, and printmaking techniques with bold experimentation, often incorporating organic materials and found objects in a surrealist, assemblage style. He conjures dreamlike worlds through direct brushwork, layering, and meticulous detail, creating thought-provoking juxtapositions that explore consciousness, science, and the borders of reality. His art pulses with psychological intensity, inviting viewers into worlds of existential wonder and introspective emotion. Artists StatementThemes and concepts in my work deal with the irrational transformation and juxtaposition of figures and objects in space. To create imaginary worlds filled with light and darkness while giving free reign to the subconscious mind as a source of creativity, to liberate pictorial ideas from traditional associations. A personal dreamscape unlocked through painting and drawing exploring the parameters of the human psyche, placing emphasis on craftsmanship and imagination.
