Marvin Perry Mann

Marvin Perry Mann is a fine arts painter residing in El Sobrante, CA. He has previously worked in comics and graphic novels, animation, as well as furniture design and construction. Mann began his career as a painter around 2016, studying realist figure painting with Noah Buchanan and others. In 2020 he turned his attention to landscape moving rapidly through modes of impressionism, tonalism and into abstraction. He maintains a vigorous exhibition schedule in the San Francisco Bay Area where he is represented by C-lective Fine Arts (https://www.c-lective.com/studio-124) and will finish 2026 with a major solo exhibition at Colloquia Gallery in Woodstock VA.

His work mixes the sonorous hues of American tonalism with the exuberant color of abstract expressionism to fuse the mystery and wonder of the natural world to the immediacy and formal concerns of painted marks on canvas and panel. Grounding his painting in the framework of landscape and the muted tones of earth, sea and sky provides an emotional depth and ballast to the ambiguity and vitality of representation.
