Marina De Wit

'I dream of painting and then I paint my dream' Vincent van Gogh. My name is Marina - I am a dreamer at heart with a love of the old masters Claude Monet and Vincent van Gogh. Painting was never my calling but instead I capture natural light to create photographic images that convey my fascination with nature. My camera is both paintbrush and paint and with natural light, blur and gorgeous textures, I share my vision through a lens. Childhood memories of my grandmother's garden, discovering sweeping African landscapes and wild oceans continue to inspire how I capture the beauty of our natural world. I currently reside in Auckland New Zealand. 'Perhaps I owe becoming a painter to flowers' Claude Monet
