More About Skip:
I'm a Connecticut based artist (Thomaston) and I’ve been painting since I was a young teenager with numerous breaks due to work, kids and business. I’m largely self taught although I did take semi-private painting lessons for a couple of years when I was a young teenager from a local watercolor artist. I initially learned to paint in both watercolors and oils although I quickly transitioned to painting with acrylics and today that is my preferred medium. During my teens and early twenties I exhibited and sold my work often during the vibrant local summer art show season and in a few local galleries. I was fortunate to win numerous awards and ribbons and I even considered making art a career and going to an art college...But my parents convinced me to pursue a degree in Business Management which is what I did!
I retired in 2018 and was able again to really focus on my art and may other passions (woodworking, hiking and just being out in nature.)
I'm constantly inspired by the beauty of the world around me and I love to paint things that make me happy like mountains, waterfalls, birds, old barns and dramatic scenery. I paint in a realistic style in Acrylics. My hope is that my work strikes a chord with you, creates an emotion and in turn makes you happy!
I have a dedicated art studio space now in my home and often on nice days I'll move outside to the back deck to enjoy the birds and nature.
You can follow me on social media (FB "Skip Marsh Art" or Instagram "Skip_Marsh_Art") where I post new work! My website is "Skipmarshart.com" where I also have prints of my work available.
If you would like me to paint something for you, I do accept commissions. Send me a message and we can discuss it!
