It is with great sadness to announce that Mark passed away on Sunday 11th April 2010. The exhibition of his work currently on show at Basildon Library meant so much to him. I think you will agree by the paintings on display there that Mark was an extremely accomplished and gifted artist and one that will be missed by all who know him.
