COBB, Calif. – The Cobb Mountain Artists will host Marlene Healey as its second Wednesday artist on May 8.

The event, which is free and open to the public, will take place beginning at 7 p.m. at The Artisan Realm 16365 Highway 175, Cobb.

English born artist Marlene Healey has enjoyed a successful career for 30 years.

Her formal education in the arts and sciences began in the 1970s and early 1980s at community colleges and Arizona State University.

In 1984 she entered a juried exhibition at ASU and was awarded an exhibition in the Wood Gallery in Tempe, Arizona.  

She has been creating and showing widely since. Her work is in collections of many well known corporations and celebrities.

Her abstract style is derived from textures and colors witnessed in the natural world and transformed through her active imagination into sophisticated modern works of art.  

Healey’s inspiration comes from the natural world: in rust forming on old pipes and trickling downward; in the La Brea tar pits with cracks of jagged earth splitting open; in life giving water dancing its way along with bright green fronds of wild grasses.

Her burning desire to make art is a winning formula for this local successful artist.
