Lewis is the great-grand-nephew of the legendary Hall of Fame pitcher Denton True “Cy” Young. As a collateral descendant of the baseball icon, Lewis represents the living heritage of a storied American bloodline. This direct family stewardship provides an impeccable line of provenance, elevating the work to a significant heritage asset for collectors of both fine art and American history.

The Piece "006-25" is a visceral exploration of atmospheric abstraction. The palette is a refined study in organic tones: muted sage, deep charcoal, and smoky mineral greys, layered over a warm parchment base. Lewis utilizes a signature "action painting" technique, where gestural, swirling strokes create a sense of movement that feels both explosive and meditative. Housed in a bold, black gallery-grade frame, the painting acts as a window into a complex, textural landscape. Its "moody" yet neutral tones make it a perfect focal point for modern interiors that prioritize "Quiet Luxury" and natural materials.

The Artist Mark Lewis is a Southern California-based modernist with a career spanning both fine art and the Hollywood film industry. His work is celebrated for its "living" quality—textured surfaces that respond dynamically to shifting light. Lewis bridges the gap between the Mid-Century Modernist movement and contemporary abstraction, making his work increasingly sought after by designers for its technical structure and unique American genealogy.
