Born in Bedford in 1978 and raised in the East of England, Mark Davies has held a lifelong fascination with telling stories. Inspired by the eloquence of Hans Christen Anderson, and ingenuity of the Grimm Brothers, Davies studied fine art in Cambridgeshire before embarking on a career as one of the region's most successful graphic designers during his formative working years.
Drawing influence from the works and lives of Piero Della Francesca, Giuseppe Arcimboldo, and Salvador Dali, the thriving reverence towards Mark's artwork nationally led to him becoming a full time artist, and his signing with Wishbone Publishing in 2014. Known for a strong narrative fused with striking visual imagery, Mark's emotive, fulfilling, and enrapturing works led to his now signature "Storyteller" collection in 2015.
