West Coast based muralist and studio artist Mark Hewko has painted internationally in Europe and South America along with artworks showcased in galleries throughout the US.
Hewko’s roots are from New York City and draws his abstract geometric mural inspiration from his Ukrainian cultural heritage and his early background in graffiti art. His murals can be seen in a variety of public and residential locations in and around California, Arizona and further abroad in Sardinia and Argentina. His studio works are based on canvases, block-prints and is no stranger to painting on large pieces of plywood labeled as wood relief sculpture. Artworks have been on display at Bread & Salt gallery, Sparks Gallery and most recently at the Yuma Art Center in Arizona. Previous East Coast works at Aicon Gallery NYC and the 2014 'Arch Motel' photo documentary project at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC.
Mark’s art has been featured in Artribune (Italy), La Nuova Sardegna Oristano (Italy), SardegnaEventi24 (Italy), San Diego’s Channel 7 NBC News and most recently his San Diego Airport piece on KPBS San Diego. In Spring 2022, Mark organized a successful art benefit for the war conflict in Ukraine raising $2000 for a hospital in Ternopyl, Ukraine.
He is currently working with an array of properties and interior designers looking to enhance their commercial and residential appeal through his art. More information on the artist can be read in a past interview here:
