Mark Altrogge


Mark graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP) in 1972 with a degree in Art Education. He then went on to receive his Master's Degree in Painting, also from IUP. Influenced primarily by Vincent Van Gogh and other Expressionists, Mark uses rich colors and rhythmic brushwork in his oil paintings. 





"Ninth Street Deli"
Oil Painting
$350.00

In this particular painting, Mark focuses on a well-known landmark in Indiana, PA, Ninth Street Deli. His broad and colorful brush strokes allow the viewer to piece together the framework of this familiar establishment into something recognizable.
