Series I

Golden Guardians

Tigers, a lion, horses, an owl, a fox: Marisa paints her animals with patient realism, hair by hair, often over a poured acrylic ground, then cuts through them with gold or copper leaf. The same hand also lingers on a verdigris lion statue, a ruined nave full of light and red lips biting a diamond.
