Artist profile: Mark Mclean
What do marketing, economics and photography have in common? The answer is Mark Mclean – a student at Wildred Laurier who started taking photos last year stating aesthetics as the initial draw. “I’ve discovered that, although putting thought into a photo is important, there are times when it’s nice to just sit back and say, I just really like the way this looks.”
As he took more and more photos he realized that relationships factored in as well. “I love portraiture and getting to know who my subjects are. It’s really satisfying to capture something reflective of someone’s character, whether through expression, context, colour, etc.” Finally he realized he just simply liked learning something new.
Above you’ll see some of Mark’s most recent photos. Right on Mark Mclean! Keep on making.
