On
return to Denmark, where the family settled for the next fourteen
years, she studied at the Art Academy in Odense.
She had
many successful exhibitions both in her own studio and local
venues in the Svendborg area.
In 1981
she moved to England and studied at the Mid-Warwickshire College
of Further Education where she was awarded a diploma and later
a post diploma in Fine Art.
In 1987,
Marianne returned to the Wales she fell in love with in 1952
and is now enjoying painting the beauty she finds here. Marianne
works from her studio next to her house. Here she can relax
and paint both from memory, sketches and also photographs.
Although she has changed her style over the years you can
still follow her love for nature and mankind.
"My
sources and inspirations come from the nature around me. Here
in Wales the hills, mountains , sea and rivers – these
have endless beauty. Anything from a stormy day on the beach
to beautiful calm, we have it all here in Wales. And then
there are also the people and the animals, all part of nature.
Where ever you go you can smell the weather and then it is
wonderful to get that feeling onto paper or canvas."
Marianne
also loves portraits and undertakes commissions. Her work
has sold in Denmark, Sweden, England, Wales, Malaysia, Sri
Lanka, Germany and USA.
