About me:

My name is Marissa Tamari. I am a self taught artist. I began painting three years ago. This page is a history of my progress in art. You'll see the stages of my development. First by the introduction of charcoal I examine shadows and light. How contrast plays a major role in emotional expression. Later on I pick up the brush, in which I become drawn to texture, heavy layers of the paint. I find myself drawn back to black and white to learn how to manipulate forms with the new medium- acrylic. Soon the texture disappears as I begin to master depth, definition, a less expressionist perception of the images, rendering the colors smoothly. The work is seen as pop surreal. Early 2009 I add origami to acrylic pieces, a mixture of medias and mediums...

Currently, I can confidently say that the work I am involved with... well, you will have to wait, for every time I describe my current situation, I feel a drastic need to alter it. So shhhhhhh....
