    I’ve been trying to get to the root of why I paint what I paint, after much ruminating I think I’ve realised the different avenues my mind travels down. I’ve become more interested recently in a still life aspect to my work, looking at old toys and discarded objects and it’s the stories about the past, that I can almost see- just out of reach and stories are the main diet of my imagination.

    Lorraine Marie is a contemporary abstract artist whose work is defined by playfulness, experimentation, and a love of mixing things up. She creates expressive, impasto-inspired pieces using a combination of textured mediums, palette-knife techniques, layered strokes, and intuitive mark-making. Her process is fluid and exploratory, allowing each artwork to evolve naturally.

    I’m an award-winning abstract artist drawn to the emotional and narrative layers that shape who we are. My work begins with a concept or feeling and evolves through intuitive mark-making, paint, and collage. I explore how storytelling—both internal and shared—helps us make sense of ourselves and the world around us.

    My educational background is in Fine Art and I have a Masters degree in Curatorial Practice from Falmouth University. My Pagan faith influences my arts practice, to create connections between the divine feminine, humanity and nature within my work. I draw visual inspiration from the Wheel of the Year and use a palette associated with a particular season or Sabbat.

    I have been doing abstract art since the beginning of 2023, as a recovering alcoholic (sober for over 10 years now) I use my art as a way of expressing my innermost feelings without having to speak a single word about them. I see my paintings as a screenshot of my soul at that particular moment in time.

    I am a sustainable textile artist and designer exploring the intersection of craft, storytelling, and wellbeing.
