THE FINER THINGS by John-Mark Gleadow

"The Finer Things" was commissioned by Thomas Sorensen, a Danish football player who plays in the English Premier League.  Thomas and his wife chose books and topics that mean a great deal to them.  

An intriguing assortment of popular topics were selected for this piece.  From "Master Images", which is a very good representation of the life's work of photographer Irving Penn, best known for his efforts in the fashion industry, to Robert Parker's, "The Wine Advocate", the limited editions of this piece reflect an affinity for some of the finer things in life. 

As the subject matter of the painting is specific to the Sorensen's and is of their choosing, John-Mark has chosen to make the edition sizes considerably smaller than his normal releases.
