Marisha MATTHEWS
Bio
Marisha mainly paints in oils on canvas or linen. Her current focus is
still life painting that explores light, reflection and refraction. In
contrast to much still life painting, she prefers the overhead view.
Marisha examines objects within a bowl, on a tray, or within the
kitchen sink. Her work explores the distortions of objects as they are
viewed through glass or water, exploring the idea that the real-world
shifts depending on your perspective.
She has worked in film art departments for over 25 years, created
large volumes of artworks for hotels and resorts, created feature
artworks for residential and commercial interiors including large
murals, specialty paint finishes and feature mosaics. She enjoys
designing and building worlds, both to live in and for special events.
Marisha has lived or traveled in London, Athens, India, China, Iran.
In 2019 she completed a Bachelor of Visual Art with Honours at
Adelaide Central School of Art in South Australia.
