Using inks, water colours, oils, acrylics, pastels and now SILK as a means of expression, it is an on going love affair with colour, design, healing and joy. A never-ending adventure.
Training in London and Perth, Western Australia, (Degree in Fine Art from Curtin University, Western Australia) is just part of the Journey. For Marlene, silk is a magical fabric to paint the vibrancy of colour, mixing of the dyes and the wonderful sensuous feel of it is a never-ending pleasure. Recently Marlene has been introduced to fine wool fabric and again, having come from a farming background, feels it is wonderful to use this magnificent fibre in her work and create a truly Australian product.
Marlene paints a large variety of styles from merging colours to detailed design, which is available in scarves, wraps, sarongs, cushions, wall hangings, paintings and lengths of material. Scarves and wraps available on wool. You can see examples of Marlene's work on the products page.
