Artwork Description

I painted this view of an alleyway in old Nice from a photo I took while on holiday last year. This is a view of one of my favourite streets in the old part of town. I loved the colours and shapes of the old buildings and wanted to paint them. This painting has a light, airy feel and would add colour to any room. I used 300 gsm watercolour paper, Windsor and Newton watercolour paints and sepia ink.

My name is Marilyn Kiesey. I live in Perth Western Australia and I have been painting now for about 15 years. I worked as a lecturer in Business Studies at Perth TAFE for many years but have always loved drawing. When I retired from teaching at TAFE I was able to explore watercolour, pastel and oil painting.

I love experimenting with all the different mediums and my favourite subjects are seascapes and landscapes. I am painting in acrylics and watercolour at the moment, as these mediums dry more quickly than oil and I am able to produce more work. My husband, who is also a painter, and I enjoy travelling in Australia and overseas, taking photographs and sketching. When we get home we use these photos to create our paintings.

I am largely self taught although I have done watercolour, acrylic and oil painting courses at Atwell Gallery in Alfred Cove. I am a member of Alfred Cove Arts and have taken on the Membership Co-ordinator role, which I enjoy. Earlier this year my husband and I opened our home to display and sell our work at Melville Arts Open Studios, which was hugely successful.

I was thrilled to win a Highly Commended award for my oil painting 'The Basin, Rottnest' at the Awards for Excellence exhibition by Alfred Cove Arts. I have also sold a number of other paintings at a variety of exhibitions run by Alfred Cove Arts, the latest being a painting of Emu Point, Albany at a recent Awards for Excellence exhibition.

I have also been picked as a finalist in 2024 for the Melville Art Awards which is a juried exhibition.

I have a large number of my paintings listed on Bluethumbart for sale and have recently been chosen as a Featured Artist. I have also had my painting selected as a Staff Pick on Bluethumb.

I am available for work on commission.
