Exhibition: Artist:

Maria Russell | Pastel on Pastelmat | 16 x 12 inches 

Maria is a Kent based artist, graduating from Art college in 1984. Working as a Graphic Designer and Illustrator for many years, starting a family, carved a new path, allowing her to return to her love of Fine Art. Teaching and commissions for portraiture established her career. Her adult art classes have run successfully for over 12 years and the extracurricular Art Club that she created at her local primary school, continues after 10 years. She has undertaken many community art projects locally.

As a teacher she is practiced in all mediums but works predominantly in oils and soft pastels finding the process similarly delightful.

Portraiture and wildlife have always featured heavily in her work, often combing the two. Her inspiration is derived from the works of the Pre-Raphaelites for their mastery of representation and depiction of a narrative.
