Looking for a way to positively approach the winter months, Marianne began painting in September of 2004. Her love of gardening inspired many of her early paintings she photographed her garden in the spring, summer and fall, then continued to express her creativity and love of color by painting scenes from her garden even when the flowers were dormant. In the past year, she began painting in a more abstract manner and has taken several classes to learn abstract and non-objective techniques. She often uses more than one medium in her work, combining watercolor, acrylic and some collage to create pieces that reflect her exuberant nature. “I have worked in a variety of media and am now focusing on acrylics. I enjoy the use of rich colors and textures in my work. Exploring the interplay between transparent & opaque, warm & cool, brush work and pouring fascinates me.” Marianne’s personal mission is to ignite, inspire and direct energy for positive action. Her paintings allow her to colorfully express her mission and hopefully bring joy to those who view them.
Marianne likes to donate paintings to benefit some of her favorite non-profit organizations. To date she has donated paintings or profits from paintings to Children’s Bureau of Indiana, Women’s Fund, Dress for Success, Prevent Blindness Indiana, Joy’s House, Girls, Inc., Make A Wish Foundation, Planned Parenthood, Ball State University and Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital.
