Bio
Marlene Lowden primarily works in oil and creates large expressive paintings on canvas. After several years in television broadcasting, she resumed her lifelong interest in painting, drawing, and photography. She draws from her experience in television and video production, applying to canvas similar principles of composition and storytelling. While working and raising her two daughters, she studied with a range of instructors learning watercolour, acrylic, and oil painting techniques.
Marlene is a proud alumni of Thrive Art Studios, an international collective of female artists. For over two years, she exhibited an homage series of 32 works to Canadian female artists called “Blind Contour Homage.” The exhibition travelled to seven public galleries in British Columbia. In 2021, she was named one of “28 contemporary Canadian artists to know” by Create! Magazine. She is honoured to be included in the All She Makes curated artist directory, the 4th Edition of their magazine and in Art Seen Magazine based in the U.K. Recently Saatchi Art selected her as 1 of 24 artists to collect in 2024. She lives and works in her hometown of Gibsons, BC Canada.
