William Marvin Studio Gallery

I invite you to come inside and let me share some of the things that are important to me. Three things were very apparent to me growing up; a love of wide open spaces, luscious color, and an appreciation for interesting calligraphy. Landscape painting, for me, brings them all together. I have been fortunate to experience sunlight slowly revealing the color and subtle textures of prairie grasslands, oceans striking rocky cliffs, and dusk quietly descending over the Sierras of the high desert. Conveying a personal feeling about a chosen subject takes some quiet contemplation before that first brushstroke touches the canvas.
