The Art Stall Gallery

Marsha is a professional Northwest artist working in pastel, oil pastel and watercolor since 1978.  Marsha's landscapes have been accepted and won awards in local and juried art shows. Marsha also paints a variety of flowers, still life, family heritage landscapes and commissioned paintings. Marsha is an artist who works from real life all year long; in the summer painting en plein air and in the winter painting still life in the studio.

Technique: realism, semi-realism and impressionism

For the past several years, Marsha has worked in local elementary schools as Artist-in-Residence; which has been a very wonderful experience. Marsha is a juried member of Women Painters of Washington, Art Stall Gallery in the Pike Place Market and Seattle Co Arts.

"Life today is so hectic, that I am always looking for opportunities where one can find a few moments to break from the hustle and bustle of daily life. With that thought in mind, I strive to produce a painting that is inviting and peaceful; to create a place the viewer yearns to visit again and again."
