Artist Bio:

Born in New Jersey, Marianne graduated from Montclair State University with a BA in Education. She wanted to be an artist as far back as she could remember. Marianne and her husband, Bruce, live in Fort Mill, SC and summer at Lake George, NY.
What started as a hobby became a passion.

Although Marianne had been painting since childhood, her first meaningful oil painting lesson began in 1992 at the Ridgewood Art Institute with Master Artist John P. Osborne. Here, Marianne learned to translate value, atmospheric affects any prismatic progression from landscape to canvas.

After moving to South Carolina in 2015, Marianne studied with Andy Braitman in Charlotte, NC. Andy Braitman's lessons are conducted in the studio. The principles of painting, weather representational, impressionistic or abstract are very similar for design color and value.
