« Specializing in capturing the beauty of Yellowwood State Forest, I hike into the forest in all four seasons to paint en plein air in oils. »
Charlene Marsh is a prizewinning artist from the United States whose paintings have been featured in exhibitions nationally and are held in prestigious permanent collections. Passionate about the outdoors, yoga, and activism, her painting practice is inspired by the natural beauty of her home in the Yellowwood State Forest, Indiana. She creates textured landscapes and botanical work in oil on canvas, always painting outside during the four seasons.
