Marla Brate
Profile
I grew up in a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio USA. I began sketching as a small child and graduated to colors in my teenage years. I have worked in a variety of media including charcoal, watercolor, acrylic, tile and fabric. But my favorite media is oil on canvas. I consider myself a realist painter, but have completed abstract and surrealism pieces, as well. While I prefer human subjects, I am struggling to include landscape objects in order to expand my portfolio.
I hope you enjoy my paintings.
