Maria was born in Belgrade, Serbia and during her time at secondary school she attended various art classes at the local arts college. As Maria loves science just as much as art, she studied Geology at University, whilst continuing with her  Art classes. Maria came to England 32 years ago and for the last 22 years has been attending Art Classes led by various academic Artists, including Michael Collins from 2016 onwards.

Maria usually uses oil, often a water-mixable oil as my media, but sometimes experiments with mixed media. She creates 3D paintings out of tissue paper, pouring acrylic and sculpture foam carving blocks. Maria also paints on textiles, especially decorating children’s sweatshirts.

Maria’s exhibition runs at the cornerHOUSE from 25th February to 21st April and she’s love to meet you at this special evening.
