Marion Anderson
Mixed Media Demonstration
Originally from Kent County, Marion Anderson now makes her home and studio in New Dundee. She studied Visual Arts at Windsor University later completing a Masters of Education at University Western Ontario, London.
Her diverse portfolio shows expertise in a wide range of mediums including clay sculpture, watercolour, acrylic and oil painting as well as the ease with which she moves from florals to landscapes in subject matter. This fluidity is due to the artist’s thirty plus years as a Visual Arts teacher/department head.
Anderson’s unique mixed media technique is constantly evolving over time. She works in series, completing a suite of paintings to express a concept or idea. Heavily textured, each piece is rendered in a limited palette, suggesting a unique visual experience for the viewer’s interpretation. One exploration simply leads to another!
Please join Marion Anderson on Saturday afternoon, May 3rd, for a large canvas acrylic landscape painting demonstration. Marion will start with texturing a canvas, then move on to the underpainting. The progress on this intuitive style of landscape painting is fun to watch. Using a limited palette, she works up her composition, being guided by what happens when the painting and the textures talk to one another. Grab a seat and join the us for this highly educational and entertaining few hours.
