His interests are in developing resources that promote the development of skills and techniques for all ages of art students. He is interested in inspiring art across the curriculum and enforcing the belief that art skills can be taught and improved, and that art is not just for a few students who have natural talents. Mark has developed a ‘step-by-step’ resource that shows students how to draw a ‘Prism grid’, in order to accurately scale an image. The Prism grid has been devised using four simple steps, with each step having an easily recognisable flag as a symbol. Students can easily grasp the concept of the Prism grid, and learn essential scaling techniques for their future development as an artist.
