Marilyn Guerinot (Texas, born 1947)
Marilyn Guerinot was born in Houston, Texas in 1947. She attended the University of St. Thomas and graduated from the University of Houston in 1973 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. As a student, Guerinot trained under artists William Shackleford, James McDermott, Henry Lienau, and William Anzelone.
Guerinot's work is greatly influenced by the Impressionist works of late Nineteenth century. She borrows their loose brushstrokes and Impressionistic techniques to capture a spontaneity of color and movement in her works. Guerinot also cites early Twentieth century painters Edward Henry Potthast, Martha Walters, and William Merritt Chase as being enormously influential in developing her artistic style. Her cheerful palette and pleasing subject matter speak strongly to admirers who are reminded of the beautiful moments in life that Guerinot captures so touchingly.
Perhaps best known for her beach scenes, Guerinot's work is recognized as a tribute to the carefree atmosphere of the seashore. She delights in depicting happy children splashing in the surf, mothers with their children, and families chatting merrily on the sand amongst brightly colored beach umbrellas. Always challenging herself to grow artistically, Guerinot has recently expanded her repertoire to include charming city scenes, lush floral still lifes, and dramatic landscapes full of color and texture.
Guerinot currently resides in Houston, Texas and has two sons, Timothy and Jonathan. Her works are admired by numerous American Art enthusiasts as well as by Impressionist art collectors throughout the United States.
