INSPIRATION INTERVIEW #103 MARSHALL CROSSMAN
COMING WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12TH
Imagine working on a series for years! Imagine how much you’d learn about your subject and yourself. This process has stuck with Bay Area painter Marshall Crossman. Her series isn’t just five or ten paintings, but rather 250, in the case of her yearbook series. She continually grows through making multiples. As she becomes more familiar with her subject, it becomes fertile ground for experimentation. Marshall expresses her subjects honestly with every scrape and brushstroke, whether a building, a beachcomber, or a portrait. The emotion is palpable. In conversation with Nicholas, Marshall openly shares her life as an artist and wisdom for those just starting. It’s been a long, focused journey.
