Artist Mark Maggiori was born and raised in France. There he also received an art education at the prestigious Parisian Julian Academy. Despite this, he remains a passionate fan of the Wild West and paints wonderful pictures with cowboys, steeds, trackers and Indians. To be closer to the places that inspire him, Marjorie even moved to the USA in 2017. Now he is considered more of an American artist than many of those who have lived in America all their lives.

We can admire the realistic and dynamic works of the artist as much as we like. But at the same time, we will never guess what exactly amazes professionals in these paintings. It turns out that experts are attracted not by prairies, horsemen and stagecoaches, but... clouds!
