Internationally recognized as an accomplished tattooist and artist, Mark Heggie transposed his singular visions from human to cotton to canvasses, creating an assemblage of paintings that art critic Robert de Valle describes as “surreal, iconic and darkly humorous.”

The vessel known as Mark Heggie manifested in 1973. Attempts at education, in a series of overcrowded learning institutions of questionable architecture and validity, proved futile and lead only to the development of the socially adroit yet misanthropic man of today.

Mark Heggie resides in his Warren, MI studio with a few spiders and a small set of amusing personal demons.
