A trained eye can be gotten three ways. 1) Direct exposure to seasoned professionals. 2) Formal training from recognized schools. 3) Life experience doing something right for many, many years. Stu Marks has all three. He started his training under the tutorage of News Photographer Frank Boling in 1977, Has been shooting stills and videos commercially since 1977, and graduated with a BFA from the Illinois Institute of Art at Schaumburg/The Chicago Art Institute. When subtlety, dynamics and expression all meld and are appropriately applied, the result is a work that is both pleasing to the eye and a subject of significance to the viewer.
