Raised in Albany, Georgia, and currently residing in Atlanta, Sean Mulkey is a self-taught artist who has embraced his passion for fine art despite attaining a degree in both architectural and mechanical drafting and design. After decades of working a 9-to-5 job, Sean decided to finally pursue his artistic dreams and become a full-time artist.
Sean considers himself a contemporary landscape painter, creating unique worlds for viewers to get lost in. His preferred medium is acrylic paint, which he uses to express and reconstruct his vision of the world and beyond. By utilizing distinctive perspectives of urban architecture, Sean creates visual movement throughout his environments to draw the viewer in.
His art style can be described as very urban, whimsical, animated, and vibrant in color, with touches of grit and familiar details throughout. Sean's work continuously evolves as he pushed the boundaries within his pieces to fully capture his creative vision. His goal is to build an entire universe for those seeking exploration and adventure, curated by the imagination of his audience.
Sean has exhibited his art in various local galleries and pop up shows, offering different perspectives for exploring one's curiosity of the unknown while reconnecting his audience with the familiar. Sean currently works out of a studio in Powder Spring, Georgia, where he continues to create and share his captivating art with the world.
Escapism is indeed the catalyst steering my art in the direction of spaces that will ignite the imaginations of those seeking exploration and adventure. I execute each painting incorporating various view angles, one being the fish bowl esthetic, to help draw and lock the viewer in.
