Featured Artist Wall – July 2022 Marianne Nielsen

Painting is my therapy, my passion, and my love. I find inspiration and motivation from all things in nature, especially animals. I started taking lessons and learned to paint watercolor in 2002. I have been completely hooked on the media because it offers so much variety and flexibility regarding textures and techniques and is never boring.

My first instructor for 5+ years was the late Marshal McDaniels. He was a huge inspira- tion to me and literally changed my life for the better. I am also an avid book collector from other artists and love to study their approaches and techniques to watercolor. As a result, I have become a watercolor instructor myself in Grants Pass, OR since 2007.

Watercolor is a media that allows me to constantly reinvent and challenge myself. It is a thrill when I can successfully apply a new technique or process to my work.
