Marianne is an artist, writer, librophile and junker. Her fine art medium of choice is paper, which she has been experimenting with for the last few years. Her artwork is influenced by Eric Carle, Marc Chagall, Jackson Pollock and Robert Rauschenberg. She saw Rauschenberg’s combine, Monogram, an assemblage of stuffed goat and automobile tire two years ago and ever since has been digging through piles of barn wood and junk shop merchandise.
Marianne McNeese is a member of All Things Orange Artwork Gallery, Authentic India, Flash Fiction, Heritage in Stone, in-between, Prairie Elevators of the Past, Short stories - Spherical Scriptings and Writing Workshop.
