ARTISTIQUE LIFE
OF
MARK POL
I was born in The Hague. Now I live in Amsterdam.
I had no artistic influence. My parents were poor and could not pay a formal academic study in the Arts. At that time I knew nothing about art. I have just my own fantasy. I am a dreamer who never wants to wake up, but I did when I grew up.
I received formal training on the Free Academy of Art in the evening in The Hague. On the Photo academy also during the evening I learned to make photos. I worked always alone. I was a loner then and I am still now.

In the mean time I work, just work and try to make my art as my thoughts are telling me. Thoughts about our human existence and our failures as humans.
