Art on the Run

The Prince William Art Society meets at the Tall Oaks Community Center for a monthly business meeting and program. The program for March 2023 is "Art On The Run" and will feature the fine art guest, Marni Maree. Marni is a watercolor artist who loves to paint, teach and travel and she has led many international travel workshops in France, Italy, and on the Queen Mary 2, Queen Elizabeth (in June) as well as Artist Residencies in France and Brazil. She has taught locally at the Workhouse, in her home studio, Green Spring Gardens, Goodwin House, and various other workshops. When the Pandemic hit, Marni immediately pivoted to teaching on Zoom. This has been wonderful and she will continue to teach this way even after it is safe to teach in person again. Her students can attend from all over the world now. 

The Prince William Art Society programs are free and open to the public. Everyone is invited to come enjoy the program. Marni will show how she pared down her drawing and watercolor supplies to make it much easier to draw and paint anywhere, especially while traveling. Marni makes her own mini palettes and you can too. 

Spring is just around the corner, so being able to paint in new locations with greater ease might be exactly what you need for those fresh landscapes, architectural views and other compositions you've been yearning all winter to produce beyond the walls of your studio space. With the gallery Open Space Arts calling for floral inspired paintings in May there's only a month to get painting! Ms. Maree has YouTube videos on painting flowers from start to finish, as well as art on display at the Lorton Workhouse and online at https://marnimaree.com/.

  1. It's always nice to see people enjoying the company, and to hear the great questions these folks ask the guest artist and the ideas that get stirred around in the mix.
