Marie Wise - Fine Artist

Kalama, WA - United States

 

ARTIST STATEMENT
Marie enjoys filling her paintings with feminine subjects. Her figurative works are filled
with feminine mystique and her florals are lush and deeply colored. In each painting she tries
to capture one reflective moment, punctuated with symbolic elements that portray a powerful
message; a place where the viewer can find a connecting emotional bond.

Marie always knew she would become an artist. While other girls were playing house, her
artistic French mother taught her to paint. As a teenager, her best friends were always pencils
and paint. Although she considers herself self-taught, she studied fine arts and art history at
Montana colleges, and later studied printmaking at Gonzaga University.

Marie returned to serious oil painting in 2003 after a twenty year respite, in which she
raised her children and explored watercolor, colored pencil and pastel. Since then her work
has evolved from simple, colorful statements into meaningful explorations of personal
subjects.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

Marie’s childhood was spent moving from place to place. As an adult, she made the
conscious decision to stay in one place and has lived in the small, southwest community of
Kalama, Washington for 27 years. In spite of a shortage of artistic opportunities, she feels
connected to the community.

Marie has been involved in numerous group and featured artist exhibitions, and has won
several awards. Her work is displayed in local restaurants, gift shops, banks, and businesses.
Over the years, her paintings have been acquired by friends, family, local collectors,
businesses and corporate offices. She paints in her studio overlooking a scenic Columbia
River vista while her cat sleeps by her easel.

Marie subscribes to many artistic publications and is constantly refining her
