'An artist who captures the essence of her subjects'

Australian artist living in the picturesque state of Tasmania.

 

Marion is a realist Tasmanian artist based in Ulverstone Tasmania, known for her highly detailed paintings, public murals and unconventional "quirky" art.  After a long successful career in elite sport she transitioned completely into visual arts in 2014.  Today she is widely celebrated across Australia for her unique, nature-inspired storytelling and humorous, whimsical style.

​

Described by many as an 'adventurous' artist she primarily paints with traditional oil and acrylic paints and has gained notable recognition for two highly distinctive avenues:

  1. Anthropomorphic Art on Antiques:  She hunts for vintage gems and repurposes them as canvases for playful, whimsical animal portraits.

  2. Animal Scat Painting:  Using animal scat combined with a binding medium, she creates textured, organic art pieces.  This unique medium has led to multiple Awards and permanent displays at the Pooseum in Richmond, Tasmania - including an organic portrait of International cricket legend David Boon, using Kangaroo, Wombat, Tasmanian devil, Sugar Glider and Wedge-tailed Eagle scat.

​

Marion's most notable art successes are:​

  • 2026 Finalist - Holmes Prize for Realistic Australian Bird Art, Queensland.

  • 2026 Commissioned by Pooseum, Richmond - Portrait of Albert Einstein for permanent display in museum.

  • 2025 & 2023 Finalist - International Mural Fest, Sheffield, TAS.

  • 2025 Winner - Pooseum Expressive Portrait Paint Off - International cricketer, David Boon.

  • 2024 People's Choice Winner & 2nd Place overall - Pooseum Paint Off - Kookaburra.​

​

All original paintings are beautifully framed to suit the painting and ready to hang.  Sizes are without framing unless otherwise stated.
