"Marcus Akerman is an exciting British painter based in the Netherlands who has exhibited his work internationally. Fascinated by patterns, lines, layering and colors, he composes interesting visual series influenced by everything from world cities to gemstones to Mardi Gras. Displaying impressive accuracy of line, color and light, Akerman ultimately fashions an artistic aesthetic full of personality and polish."

Hoorn exhibition review floral watercolour collections
‘Marcus is a gardener who knows how to plant his flowers in a very precise way. He plants them from a controlled craftsmanship in a manner that yields entirely unique forms.’
Gallery owner Busarts exhibition
'With the Brit Marcus Akerman, spring was in full bloom when I picked up the works. No lambs, but beautiful twins. Surrounded with so much love, as in his work. Often diptych. From poppies, tulips to lilies. When you stand in his studio, you can smell the floral scent of his work. For Marcus - from father to son - no surprise anymore. For me a beautiful spring feeling.'
