Artist Bio: Marie was born and raised in Hot Springs, except for three years in grade school when she lived in Little Rock. She traveled extensively with her thoroughbred trainer husband for eight years and created her horse paintings. 

She began commissioned work of still lifes and portraits in the 70's in Tampa. After an eclectic work and travel history for 30 years, she returned to Hot Springs where her creative artistic talents are put to work. She began painting flowerpots - each one a "work of art" - using various mediums, decoupage, glue etc.

Artist Interpretation: "I saw the Adirondack chair competition in the newspaper and something just clicked. I always loved chairs. I have my chair from when I was four years old! I took on the challenge to use the paints and glues that I use in designing my flowerpots. I could go much larger in my vision and design and really stretch my abilities to the max and see what happens. 

I am looking forward to the opportunity to create my Adirondack chair as a new venue for my artistic heart!"
