I offer for you

Welcome to my artistic realm, where imagination takes shape and creativity knows no bounds. On the Mars Dizajn website, I invite you to embark on a journey through the vibrant way of my artistic expression.

I am an artist with a passion and mission to capture the essence of the beauty of life through various media. With every stroke of the brush or pencil, every graceful movement of the artist's hand, or every carefully placed pixel on canvas or digital image, we strive to convey emotion, evoke feelings, and ignite inspiration in the hearts of all who encounter our work.

Driven by an unwavering desire to transcend the boundaries of conventional art, we constantly explore new horizons and experiment with different techniques. Our artists, each with their own unique vision and artistic voice, infuse their creations with personal stories, cultural influences and the zeitgeist. From abstract masterpieces that challenge perception to intricate portraits that reveal the depths of the human soul, our collection spans a collage of styles and narratives.

However, our purpose goes beyond mere aesthetic enjoyment. We believe that art has the power to spark conversations, provoke thought, and create connections that transcend language and cultural barriers. With our art, we want to initiate a dialogue with the viewer, to invite them to explore their own perceptions and to accept the many perspectives that make our world so beautifully complex.

At our core, we are storytellers. Through our art, we tell stories of triumphs and tragedies, love and loss, dreams and aspirations. Every stroke, color choice and composition serves as a testimony to the emotions we want to express and the stories we want to tell. We invite you to delve into our gallery, get lost in the narratives and discover your own story in the works of art.

Whether you are an ardent art lover, a collector looking to expand your collection, or just someone looking for a moment of rest and reflection, we extend our warmest regards. Join us on this artistic odyssey, where passion meets imagination, and where art becomes a gateway to new worlds.

Thank you for visiting our site and we hope our art leaves an indelible mark on your heart and mind.

Welcome to the charming world of Mars Design.

about me

01 Axl Mars

Hi, my name is Axl Mars. I am a visionary artist whose work transcends boundaries and invites viewers into a world of imagination and emotion. With a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of the human experience, I create engaging works that resonate with simple beauty and meaning. Through my chosen medium, whether paint or mixed media, I connect elements of nature, spirituality and the human condition, creating work that is both provocative and visually stunning. With each creation, I invite viewers on a personal journey, encourage introspection and inspire a sense of wonder. Experience the transformative power of my art.

02 Inspiration, concept, technique,...

Inspiration: My artistic process begins with finding inspiration in the world around us. Whether it's the beauty of nature, human emotions, cultural influences, or everyday moments, I look for resources that ignite my imagination and ignite the creative spark within us.

Conceptualization: When inspired, I dive into the world of ideas, exploring different concepts and forms that best capture the essence of our inspiration. This stage involves sketching, brainstorming and refining my vision until it matches the artistic goals.

Medium and Technique: With a clear concept in mind, I carefully select the medium and technique that will best bring the vision to life. From traditional oil or acrylic painting to digital art, sculpture, mixed media,... each medium offers me unique opportunities to express myself.

Creation: This is where the magic happens. Guided by intuition and technical knowledge, I pour my heart and soul into each work of art. I allow myself to completely immerse myself in the process, exploring textures, colors and compositions in order to convey the desired message or evoke certain emotions.

Reflection and Iteration: After the initial work is completed, I take a step back and reflect on the work. I appreciate his influence, his ability to communicate my ideas and his resonance with the original artistic vision. This stage often involves tweaking, refining details, or even starting over to achieve the desired result.

Presentation and Sharing: Finally, I present my artwork to the world. Either through exhibitions, online platforms or collaborations, I strive to create opportunities for others to experience and connect with my art. I believe that art is meant to be shared, appreciated and interpreted by a diverse audience, each bringing their own perspective and enriching the narrative.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPH FOR A PORTRAIT?

For a quality portrait, it is essential to choose the right and high-quality photo.
– When choosing, pay attention to resolution and lighting.
If possible, the photo should be sharp, close-up, and illuminated by daylight. It is desirable that the size of the photo is at least 1 Mb.
- The photo should be expressive, it should express the qualities or emotions of a person. It is most beautiful when the portrait shows the whole person and when it also shows the inside of the person. If there are several people in the portrait, it is desirable that they interact with each other, e.g. that they are hugging or showing affection to each other.

CAN A PORTRAIT BE COMPOSED FROM SEVERAL PHOTOS?

It is desirable that all people are in one photo, but it is understandable that sometimes this is not possible, so you can send me several separate photos, which I will combine into one whole.

DO YOU ALSO FRAME THE PORTRAIT? WHAT FRAME DO YOU SUGGESTED IF I FRAMED THE PORTRAIT MYSELF?

In case of personal pickup, I can also frame the portrait for you. If I have you make a custom-made frame, the frame will be paid extra. In this case, the delivery time is extended by approximately 1 week. We agree on this before the portrait is made.
If you are going to buy the frame yourself (which I personally recommend, because everyone has their own taste), make sure that it has at least 5 cm of passe-partout, and that the outer frame does not have flashy colors.
I recommend not overly flashy frames, neutral or more pastel colors (black-white, gray, anthracite, gold, etc.) Silver goes perfectly with graphite.
The use of the "passepartout" technique is highly recommended not only from an aesthetic point of view, but also from a practical point of view; because the inside edge creates a focus on the drawing while preventing it from coming into contact with the glass.

IS AN ADVANCE PAYMENT NECESSARY?

Yes. I trust my customers, because I build a personal relationship, but to start production, I ask for a partial advance payment (30% advance), which ensures serious cooperation. It is necessary to understand that each portrait takes a certain amount of time to create, which in case of possible cancellation would take the place of others and thus delay the creation of other portraits, and it is, after all, my original work, which requires a large energy input from me and quite a bit of time and a lot of dedication . I understand that it is difficult to transfer money in advance without knowing if you will actually like the portrait, but after 20 years of drawing and with over 300 drawings, I have yet to have a dissatisfied customer. However, I stand for your satisfaction and guarantee my positive attitude towards your comments, desired corrections or changes.

HOW DO I PAY FOR A PORTRAIT?

You pay for the portrait via bank transfer. You pay a 30% advance and the rest before taking over, when the work is completed and you are satisfied with it. In the case of delivery, it is also necessary to pay the postage costs, which amount depend of the delivery country.

WHAT IF I NEED A PORTRAIT AT THE "LAST MINUTE"?

In this fast pace of life, it often happens that we need a gift in a very short time.
It is definitely a good idea to order the portrait at least a week to 14 days in advance. Without the quality of the work suffering, we can also agree on "last minute" drawing, if possible. Do not hesitate to call me anyway so we can find a solution together. I am flexible and extremely responsible in my work.

CAN I RETURN THE PORTRAIT OR CANCEL THE OREDER?

On the basis of point 1 of the fifth paragraph of Article 43 of the ZvPOT, the buyer does not have the right to withdraw from the contract, for portraits or drawings of a person/persons, as they are goods that are manufactured according to the customer's exact instructions and adapted to his personal needs (unique product).
Every customer is informed before the order itself and agrees with the order, agrees with the method and style of illustration which he chooses in advance. The creation of the illustration itself takes from 15 to 30 hours of active work, so refunds are not possible. Agreements are possible only on minor corrections, but there are NO refunds. The order obligates the customer to make the agreed payment, but I undertake to do my best for your final satisfaction.
