Famed for his series of portraits and studies of Harry Potter and Hollywood star Emma Watson, Mark Demsteader’s figurative work has cemented him as one of the most popular artists in the UK today.
With a signature mixture of atmospheric and ethereal settings and incredibly detailed, but never overworked, figurative painting contrasting thick, textured, raw pigments, Demsteader's oil paintings are simultaneously show stopping and compelling in equal measure.
A sense of the accidental runs throughout his work, with constant informality, dynamism, movement highlighting his female muses. His detailed observations have established him as one of the UK's most outstanding figurative artists, earning him prestigious awards including The Lyceum Prize and The Sidney Andrews Scholarship.
