Marilyn Jessop

Marilyn Jessop is a self-taught painter from New Zealand who passionately explores vibrant, richly textured Impressionism and semi-abstract forms, capturing the “Essence of Aotearoa.” Her love of music and garden florals has been the inspiration for her “Music in the Garden” creations and love of mystical fantasy has resulted in her new “Enchanting” series. She masterfully wields brushes and palette knives, responding to the subject’s emotion—her works are suffused with bold colour and tactile energy. Her art radiates a joyful appreciation of beauty and an infectious sense of wonder, inviting viewers to share in her creative delight.
