Marianna Foster

Marianna Foster was born and educated in Ukraine, relocating to Phoenix, Arizona in 2012. In Ukraine she was classically trained, graduating from the National Institute of Fine Arts and Architecture in Kiev with a Master of Arts degree. During her early professional life, Marianna took a short detour into art direction, design, and photography. Although Marianna excelled in that work, she now focuses on bringing out her own vision in paintings and drawings. Her inspiration centers on figures and water. Primarily she uses classical techniques to represent the modern world in her paintings.
