Mark Bagally
Mark Bagally is a passionate representational landscape and marine painter from the Surfcoast of Victoria, Australia. He works in both watercolour and oil. Although Mark enjoys working “in studio”, his real passion is painting outdoors from life. He has travelled quite extensively throughout the country in pursuit of this passion, drawing much inspiration for marine paintings from the Great Ocean Road, which is on the doorstep of where he lives. He regularly travels throughout Victoria, New South Wales and Tasmania painting and gathering reference material for rural landscape works which are his preference to paint. Enjoying the challenge of creating a believable impression of a scene, he is inspired by renowned past and present Australian landscape impressionists, several of whom he has had the pleasure of being tutored by over the years at various advanced workshops. Mark believes the key to his progression has been lots of practice (brush miles) and a disciplined and quite intensive self-education regime. Mark has held highly successful solo exhibitions and is affiliated with several art societies, including current Fellow and former President of the Victorian Artists Society (VAS); former National Vice President and exhibiting member of the Australian Society of Marine Artists (ASMA) and founder and exhibiting artist with the Brandon Circle Melbourne.
