They are nest-like while also acknowledging the sense of mystery\/infinity a window suggests. My process is focused, meditative and time-intensive. Assembling the many tiny abstractions made from prints of my oil paintings feels akin to seeking broader connections. The paper is archival and is applied to wood substrates. The works range in size from small to monumental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marlene Walters is a collage artist and oil painter. Living and working in the San Francisco Bay Area, she has shown her work for many years both within California and in New York City. In 2020 she had a one-woman show of her new collage work at Desta Gallery in Marin County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ARTIST CONTACT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:marlenefw@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">click to email<\/a>]<br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marlenefw.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.marlenefw.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"702\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/marlene-walters-crescendo.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8589\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/marlene-walters-crescendo.jpg 700w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/marlene-walters-crescendo-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/marlene-walters-crescendo-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/marlene-walters-crescendo-210x211.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption><em>Crescendo <\/em><br>36&#8243;x36&#8243;;
