Marie Ackerman, a Long Island based artist, has brought her own perspective to abstract painting. Educated at Hofstra University and later CW Post, she holds a Master's in Fine Arts.

 

Marie has melded her passion for painting and drawing with her background in education. Like many people, the artist has gone through their own trials and tribulations, using those struggles to explore the unconscious through intuitive painting. Marie uses color and texture, combined with a unique energy, which allows the work to show the artist's heart and soul, as if it were communicating right through the canvas and directly onto the viewer. The artist's personal philosophy shines through like a kaleidoscope of merging colors, images, and shapes.
