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 historical roots.

The Piece "045-25" is a visceral study in depth and chromatic saturation. The palette is dominated by Vibrant Turquoise and Teal, which serve as a glowing stage for heavy, "non-flat" Indigo geometric forms. Lewis utilizes a signature "Action Painting" style, where sweeping gestural arcs and sharp-edged blocks create a sense of multi-dimensional space. This piece highlights the artist's Hollywood background; the composition feels cinematic, capturing a sense of frozen motion that responds dynamically to shifting environmental light. Housed in a custom Black gallery-grade frame, the work serves as a commanding, high-energy focal point for modern or coastal estates.

The Artist Mark Lewis’s path to the canvas is a uniquely American story. A U.S. Navy veteran who traveled the world, Lewis later found success as an actor in Hollywood, appearing in ER and the film Anger Management. 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 textured surfaces and bold, expressive modernism, bridging the grit of his Midwestern roots with West Coast modernist aesthetics.
