ABOUT ME

Marina was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1980.
From a very earlyĀ age, she taught herself different art mediums, compositions andĀ techniques, taking also partĀ in severalĀ exhibitions. Due to theĀ excessive use of vermilion red,Ā Prussian blue, ochreĀ and ivory black coloursĀ and alsoĀ the emphasis onĀ buildings andĀ dark andĀ gloomyĀ atmospheres;Ā influences from the artist L S Lowry haveĀ been attributed to her.
Parallel to her artworks, MarinaĀ graduated with honours and worked as a sport journalist back home, but once stablished in the UK since 2001, she made the decisionĀ to embrace her love of art.
'At first, I found it difficult to get a job as a journalist because my English wasn't up to the standards, so I decided to resume painting. It was then when I realised that I didn't need words to express feelings, emotions... onlyĀ a pencil.'
