I was born and still live in Berks County Pennsylvania where I have my studio. For as long as I can remember I have been interested in creating art. Although I do not have a formal education in art I have attended local workshops and taken instruction from a number of local artists over the years.
My favorite medium is oil, but will work in acrylic and watercolor as well. I enjoy doing still life, landscape and portraits. My style is representative and inspiration comes from family, friends, travel and nature. Recently, I’ve started dabbling in abstracts. I have had several solo exhibitions and am the proud holder of several awards and a member of various arts councils. My website is marlene-book.pixels.com, through which I can be contacted.
