Ryan Mark Fine Arts was established in early 2019 by myself, Ryan Mark, as I wanted to share my passion and eye for high quality works of art with other art lovers and collectors.
​
Prior to starting the business, I was intrigued about the different styles of art and artists spanning through many periods of history.
I would spend my evenings studying the great masters of art with dedication, the way in which any student studies his craft.
​
Upon deciding to start the business, with the guidance of a close art dealer friend, I began to build a collection of historical pieces of art that I adored and would have loved to have had on my walls to enjoy every evening with a glass of wine.
​
I started to create contacts across the art world including many at auction houses including Christies and Bonhams. These contacts have helped me to understand the process of due diligence when provenance of a painting or piece of art comes into question.
​
Every painting that passes through my hands is personally curated by myself and has been sourced from variousprivate collections throughout the world
​
One of my core philosophies when purchasing pieces of art, is that I would never buy something that I personally wouldn't own myself. This has led to many a sad day when the paintings have moved on to new collections.
​
Each piece of artwork that I own, has had hours spent prior to purchase on researching provenance, composition, style, technique, quality and the artist itself. This is then continued when I receive the painting to ensure quality assurance for any future collector.
​
One of my favourite aspects of being a dealer is placing a painting on a collectors wall. It is incredibly rewarding to see the happiness of the collector when the piece is in place in their homes.
​
Please feel free to look through my current collection which can be found on this website as well as previous pieces of art that I have helped relocate to new collections.
​
If there is something you specifically long to obtain, please do not hesitate to get in touch with myself directly as this may be something I can help with.
​
In the meantime, please enjoy looking at my lovingly chosen current pieces and I hope to hear from you!
​
Best Wishes,
Ryan Mark
