Artist Online Art Gallery home page | Marina Townsend Artist Biography

I am a Russian-American artist. Russian by place of birth, American by spirit! I still love Russia as my native Motherland, with many warm memories of my childhood, but I also love America with all my heart as the land which gave me the chance for a new beginning and made me who I am now.

I like to travel, to experience new cultures, to meet new people, to adapt myself to new situations. That is like having many lives in one! I have a family who share my way of life; without their support it would be difficult to bring to life my dreams. My artworks reflect the way I live and the way I see the world around me.

I work for commissions and also for my own enjoyment. I do drawing, painting, and pen & ink from photos of my customers, as well as design and illustrations.
