Biography
Marsha Connell is a Northern California artist known for her evocative collages and her colorist paintings in oil, watercolor, and pastel. Her work has been exhibited widely in solo and group shows and in art and literary publications.
She is a painter of inner and outer worlds. My media: expressive landscape and still life painting in oil, watercolor and pastel, and evocative “Dream Vessels” collages.
Her paintings are a dance in color, a moving meditation in the landscape. She combines observation—mirroring the natural world—with improvisation—giving voice to the “spirit of place”, in dialogue with the moods of my inner landscape. Watching, listening, hiking, dancing, trusting intuition and gesture, all infuse my painterly representation with an energetic and abstract sensibility.
Marsha Connell's art has been shown regionally and internationally, and is in private, corporate and healthcare collections. I open my studio to the public each October during ARTrails Open Studios, and by appointment year-round.
