Marsha Skinner was a Taos-based artist born in 1944 in Canon City, Colorado. Her muse — the natural world — features prominently in her artwork, flowing as fluidly as calligraphy. Skinner studied her practice within the walls of Asian universities, including Delhi University in India and the China Institute in New York.
The gentleness, focus, and the I Ching taught to her by mentors of a different culture are still foundational elements of her artwork today. Informed by this method of chance in her creative process, the roll of dice can dictate the artist’s decisions as to color, thickness, texture, tools and time it took to produce her finished works.
