    Growing wings on the way down.
Every one of of Mark Horst’s drawings and paintings evoke an emotional response from me.  A pang of regret, a tinge of nostalgia, a longing for something I don’t yet know…Horst lives in Stillwater, Minnesota.  
“I paint as a way to see and to know the world. Yet the world is never finished and the joy of seeing it is never complete—and so my painting points to the fleeting, the glimpsed, to the life that is always present and so difficult to touch.”
Sigh.  See more of his work here.
