Using exciting colour combinations Marion creates paintings full of life and joy.
The art I create, as a contemporary artist, celebrates and explores the complex beauty of our world.
​
Colour plays a vital role in
my work and the richness of depth is achieved through using a variety of textures and mark making.
I thought I’d tell you a little about my recent and brand new series of paintings. (Found in Gallery - Abstract)
I'm thrilled with them as they have allowed me to explore my year's theme of FREEDOM - but a freedom that is grounded and real. I'm not a youngster and although I believe all of life is a fabulous adventure and a journey to celebrate I do not want freedom that is ungrounded or flippant or unreal. I once explained that I want my life to be lovely whilst still touching the sides. The sides to me are the grit and grime, the struggles and tears - the stuff that makes life real and challenging and that brings balance to the sunshine, laughter and joy of each day.
Many of these new paintings include curves and swirls - this happened organically - it felt right and expresses my experience of being free and somewhat crazy whilst still being held and supported by those who I love and those who love me.
( I wish to name and tribute this collection to my fabulous hubby Mike and two awesome daughters Naomi and Hannah - these paintings are about us XXX)
So... these new paintings are full of freedom; full of colour; full of energy and life --as colours and lines merge together greater depth is seen and celebrated.
