Marlan Mastellar
Technique and intricate use of shadows combine with a craftsman's sense of making a statement in artist Marlan Masteller's work; "I want people to relate and be moved emotionally by what I draw." Born and raised in Iowa, Masteller received his formal training at the School of Associated Arts, St. Paul, Minnesota, but his travels in Europe, Mexico and around the United States provide experience for his continuing studies. The emphasis of his style lies in the detail. The fine wire touches of the rapidograph pen cross-hatch layer upon layer, giving depth and a photographic keenness to his work. An excess of 100 hours is not uncommon in Masteller's application. Marlan has been selling his original art for more that 30 years with sales made through his own studio in Clear Lake, Iowa.
