Marie Prett

Marie's interest in the human and animal form has been there from her earliest memories of drawing and painting. Marie's passion is for the narrative in each piece; the story behind the smile and humorous pose. The figures on horses or zebras have also been described as 'sensual' as well as gently mischievous. Sitting astride the wild horse or zebra, the jesters and showgirls hide the untameable, carried placidly as a welcome guest. The animal often has the affectionate - if resigned - expression of "what's she doing now?"

Marie says of her work: "It is my constant aim to create an infusion of energy, movement, colour and humour into each piece; to inspire curiosity and make people smile".
