Hello and welcome to Colours on Grey.   

Hi, – I am Marianne (or Mi, as many will call me). I’m an abstract landscape painter, keen ceramist, card maker and creative tutor. I create abstract landscape inspired paintings, small batches of hand formed organically shaped ceramics for slow and mindful living, as well as art cards and collages. I sometimes run stress-free watercolour painting and drawing classes.

Most workshops are held in my home town of Glen Innes in rural NSW, Australia – but I also run workshops for groups at cafe’s and in private homes. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in organizing a group workshop with me.

UPCOMMING EVENTS:

In August 2022 I am running two watercolour workshops together with Holly from our local cafe The Coffee Incident .

Join us at The Coffee Incident for a winter warming dinner and wine while I take you through a 2 hour watercolour session of a beautiful winter landscape for $125 per head ❄️
There are only 12 places in each session so be sure to round up your friends and get in early so you don’t miss out! Message The Coffee Incident on Facebook or Instagram or text Holly directly on 0423690252 to secure your place! 🤍

HELLO AND WELCOME

Hi – I’m Marianne – many call me Mi.

I am a painter, photographer, card maker and ceramic creative. I paint abstract paintings, give lessons to creatives, write about my art practice and photograph my colourful life on a small rural property in NSW, Australia. I provide creative workshops to suit everyone, inspiring creative adventures and happiness – because that’s what I love.

My wattles are starting to bloom and it’s a sign My wattles are starting to bloom and it’s a sign of spring getting closer.
At this time of year, just before spring, my Mother would cut branches of trees and bushes and arrange them in a vase inside her warm Danish home. After a few days they would start to bloom with bright green leaves. A touch of spring before spring.
It has become an early spring tradition for me to do the same in my Australian home - a way of remembering this amazing woman.

I miss my studio. I miss having paint up to my elb I miss my studio.
I miss having paint up to my elbows.
I miss having my hands covered in clay.
After weeks of being sick with Covid I am finally beginning to get some energy back - slowly and bit by bit. 
I haven’t been able to do any work for 6 weeks and I am now reaching the point where I just need to do something 🤪🤪🤪🤪
So I am planning for better days ahead and hopefully August will also bring some warmth. It’s soooo cold here in Glen Innes.
Stay tuned and stay safe 🙏🙏
