Marjorie Taylor

I combine my love of painting with my passion for travel and exploration. Painting en plein air enables me to capture the atmosphere of a place, and I feel that it brings authenticity to my work. When painting in the studio, I seek to approach the blank canvas with the same immediacy and spontaneity found in my plein air paintings.
