About Marlene Farmer
Marlene Farmer
A third-generation artist who is educationally grounded in biology and chemistry and inspired by travel, specializing in portraiture, landscapes, animals, and still life.
The bulk of my work is in oil painting, Chinese brush painting and photography. I have been drawing and painting most of my life---coming from a family of artists, my mother, grandmother, uncle and four cousins.
In college, though my degree is in biology and chemistry, I took art classes whenever I could.
My paintings mostly come from my travels—I have been all over the world and from pole to pole. So my work is much varied. My favorite subject is animals. I also do landscapes,still life and portraits.
