NEDERLAND - Nederland artist Marie Channer paints in oils. She focuses on painting Western scenes of horses, plus ballerinas and landscapes. She emphasizes light and shadow in her work, creating contrast and drama. She is primarily a realist, using subtle tones to create a mysterious, sensuous quality, and trigger an emotional response front the viewer.
Channer shows her work in galleries in Colorado and elsewhere—New York, California, South Carolina—and has seen her work go to presigious private collections throughout the United States.
You can see her moody yet vivid work on her website, www.mariechanner.com. She is also part of the group displayed on www.spafineartgallery.com. Visit her home studio during the Tour; it's at 64 Valleyview Drive in Nederland.
