Her work is held in numerous private and public collections throughout New Zealand: Te Papa, Massey University, The Royal Society and The Reserve bank. Marianne is a full-time working artist whose creative impetus is to always work from life and on site in a variety of media. Currently living in South Taranaki with partner/artist Roger Morris.
