Marie Louise Wrightson BA(HONS), MFA
 Lancashire’s Mather Gallery are very pleased to have a brand new artist in the gallery, one whose exciting work is much sought after by collectors & the public. The gallery have a collection of her smaller works in anticipation of Valentine’s day with more of her work due in the near future.
Marie Louise Wrightson studied fine art at Duncan of Jordanstone School of Art in Dundee, gaining a BA(hons) & eventually a Master of Fine Art Degree in 2006.  ‘This four year period counts as some of the best years of my life, I simply loved being surrounded by so much creativity and new ideas.’ Her Final MFA Degree show proved a huge success  Marie’s painting’s are held in many private collections both nationally & internationally, but can also be found in a good number of public museums and galleries including, St  Andrews Museum & the Stirling Smith Museum in Scotland.
Marie began to develop a passion for art through her love of old Children's picture books. As a child she was captivated by the illustrations of Arthur Rackham, John Tenniel and Kate Greenaway, later on she fell in love with the Pre-Raphaelites, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ford Madox Brown and Elizabett Siddal. Norman Rockwell is a more recent favourite, with his amazing eye for detail and characterful  figures and faces. Marie's fascination with the wider art world inspired her to undertake a BA in Fine Art commencing in 2001 followed by her MA again in Fine Art which she completed in 2005. 
Marie Louise says: ‘Like many artists, I have long been influenced & inspired by fairy tales, cartoons, comic books, cult films & children's books.’  This amalgamation of popular culture has resulted in the wide range & eclectic mix of paintings Marie creates. From the Pulp Fiction, Tank Girl and Batman femme fatales to Alice in Wonderland, Treasure Island & The Wizard of OZ series of works, there is always a surprise in Marie's works.
Marie paints from her summer house studio, which has become a shrine to the great British seaside; her first love. Collected over many years, numerous seaside novelties make their way into a variety of her paintings, from brightly coloured sticks of rock, seashells & children's beach toys. Drawn by family from living in Lincolnshire to a life North of The Border, Marie Louise has now lived in Scotland for the past twenty years, her painting is a way of life, a passion that continues to surprise and delight art lovers & collectors alike.
