Marilena RedfernMy art has been influenced by living next to Puget Sound, in Northern California, the south of France, and by my many travels. As an inquisitive young girl in Texas, my grandfather patiently answered my endless questions, and then taught me to see the immense wonder and beauty in nature.
As an IT consultant to the private and public sectors, I worked throughout the USA, Canada, and Europe. After years of traveling, I took a summer break in the south of France, and discovered the sunlit, vigorous, and bold art of Matisse, Dufy, Renoir, Chagall, and Picasso. This experience transformed my life! At a young age, I started writing stories about all the places I hoped to visit someday. Since then I’ve lived those dreams by traveling to 34 countries, and living and working in Europe as an American. It is my hope that by sharing my watercolors and stories I can engage your imagination and wonder. |
