December 2009

Dear Friends,

Well, I finally had to winterize the RV and put it away for a few months. I was out painting right to the end though, even with the first skiffs of snow starting to blow. The Olympic buzz is heating up. With all of the early snow in the mountains nearby and Whistler, it looks like the games will be a success.

It's been an exciting few months for me. I have had a bison reproduced on a CD cover for the Buffalo Horse Singers, a magazine cover and blurb in Natural Reflections, which printed out over a million copies, an invitation to participate in the Kunamoskst mural project, and I was in the top 15% of the Fine Art Studio International painting competition, won by Nancy Guzik. I will also have a novel cover published in 2010.

Last week I saw my first bald eagle home for the winter, huge ravens next door harassing the crows, and the fields are once again covered with Trumpeter Swans.

I have begun to experiment and play with Golden fluid acrylics. It will be interesting to see how I mix up these glorious glazes with some knife work for texture. Our fabulous lengthy mild autumn this year has inspired me to do several birch and tree compositions. I am leaning more towards abstraction with some subjects to explore their qualities more expressively.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, and I'm looking forward to a wonderful holiday season.

Take care,

Marion Rose

Artist Statement

Color surprises, bold texture and generous paint have always drawn collectors to my work, and now the paintings are bigger than ever before. The abstract spirit of every subject is coming through more clearly with spontaneous gestures that involve my whole body. It's like a dance before the canvas, and the surface is coming alive!

This new direction is proving to be influential to my smaller work as well. It's fresher, with more dramatic compositions and a more immediate expression of essence.

 

ARTIST'S BIO

Most days you'll find Marion in her spacious new studio painting, especially once the winter chill sets in. That makes it very motivating to put on favourite music or play an old video before settling in to paint for the day.

Her work is influenced by past masters such as Joaquin Sorolla, Tom Thomson, Carl Rungius, Bob Kuhn and many others that work today in a variety of subject and media. She also studied print making, life painting and drawing in college in her 30's.

The wonderful wild web is today's new frontier. An artist can reach far and wide to communicate with clients and make new connections all over the world now. Marion has recently had CD, magazine and novel covers to her credit, several schools and universities use her work for promotion, her paintings are udes in TV documentary intros, and there's often a new article in the works in any one of a variety of media.

Her subjects come from her life. She travels enthusiastically as often as she can, both close to home or across the ocean. Sketching and studying animals are a favourite pastime, which sets an excellent foundation for creating authentic work.

Texture and rich color are her signature. Delicious paint applied generously by knife or brush strokes capture the essence of a subject's spirit and demeanor.

Marion was a prairie gal intil her 30's when she moved to the West Coast. Two distinct histories to draw a wealth of inspiration from. Commercial art and design was the main focus until about 14 years ago when painting became a full time passion.
