Lewis is the great-grand-nephew of the legendary Hall of Fame pitcher Denton True “Cy” Young. While the world honors the Cy Young name for athletic mastery, this collection celebrates the family’s creative excellence. Direct stewardship by the artist’s kin ensures a seamless heritage line, making this piece a significant asset for collectors of contemporary fine art with deep American roots.

The Piece "034-25" is a masterful study in geometric abstraction and color theory. The composition is built upon an atmospheric, "underwater" ground of Sapphire and Emerald, which is dramatically interrupted by bold, structural strikes of Orange, Red, and White. Lewis utilizes a signature "Action Painting" style to create architectural forms—cylinders and diagonal beams—that seem to float in a multi-dimensional space. This piece highlights the artist's Hollywood background; the lighting and layering of the paint create a cinematic depth that responds dynamically to shifting light. Housed in a statement Brushed Gold gallery frame, the work bridges the gap between raw kinetic energy and refined luxury, making it a perfect anchor for modern or transitional estates.

The Artist Mark Lewis’s path to the canvas is a uniquely American story. After serving as a veteran in the U.S. Navy and finding success as a Hollywood actor (with credits in ER and Anger Management), Lewis turned his focus to abstract expressionism in 2006. This varied life experience—from military discipline to the visual storytelling of the film industry—is distilled into his work. Based in Southern California, Lewis is celebrated for his "non-flat" technique, utilizing high-relief textures and layered impasto to ensure his paintings are immersive, 3D experiences.
