Being surrounded by natural beauty gives Marciaendless inspiration for her art.
From as far back as I can remember I could always sew and draw. Now, I can account for my sewing ability as my Mother was an excellent dressmaker as was my Grandmother, so I guess some of it had to rub off on me, but to my knowledge there has never been anyone who painted or drew, in fact they were all musically inclined.
When I was at boarding school we wrote home each weekend and I found that I became very popular for a time, painting weird and wonderful things with sandshoe cleaner mixed with ink on my school mates’ letters, until I was finally reprimanded, so ending my new found fame.
Each year the school would put on a performance at the local town hall and in my last year a friend and I volunteered to paint the backdrops, which were massive trees, which the handyman propped up from behind. We were extremely proud of our efforts. That was it! School over, dances and friends, years went by, a marriage and three lovely children.
