About Marjory Wilson

" In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous." Aristotle

I believe everyone should own original art. Art is a stroy, an inspiration, a feeling or emotion that we all relate to in our own individual way.  I pick particular views based on how they affect me. Often it's how light and shadows create shapes and images,  sometimes it's the beauty of looking at things close-up, or the repetition of shapes or lines that create a pattern.  I paint with acrylic paints, I actually like that they dry fast, it keeps the color fresh and I can build the painting with layers. I mainly paint botanical images and landscapes but I also paint figures, portraits...whatever inspires me.

Born and raised in Colorado, I began my study of art as a teen at Rocky Mountain School of Art. I attended Colorado State University, but received my BFA from California College of Arts in Oakland, CA.  Always in the creative mind, I spent many years in marketing and advertising first as an illustrator & designer, then art director, creative director and agency owner.  But painting has always been my joy, relaxation and passion. Over the years I continued my art edification at  Art Students League of Denver, Rocky Mountain College of Art, Colorado Art Institute, Arapahoe Community College and  Pacific Art League.
