Ever since Marie Perry-Edwards can remember, art has been a way to escape her reality and enter another dimension. She grew up in Jamaica and would look out the window and think about her future. When Marie looks back at her sketchpad, she realizes she has designed the life of her dreams. Her earliest sketches depict clouds, trees and gardens.

Marie began painting in 2016. She attended an acrylic painting course at Mount Saint Mary College, Desmond Campus, and decided to pursue painting further. She continued taking classes in drawing and acrylics and learned various techniques. She also took private acrylic painting lessons with Rebecca Cornell, the owner of ARTBOX Studio and oil painting lessons from Mitchell Saler.

Her media is primarily acrylics, and she also paints in oil. She displays and sells her art at various venues. She is a member of the Middletown Art Group, Cornwall-Highlands Arts Alliance and Arts Mid-Hudson. She enjoys being involved in the art community.
