South African artist Marna Schoeman studied BA Fine Arts at the University of Pretoria and graduated in 1986
Marna Schoeman currently finds great joy in rendering finely detailed miniature paintings in the old Persian style and concentrates on subjects that instill a sense of happiness and harmony in the viewer. She gets her inspiration from the rich diversity of life, as well as humans, plants ant animals and she tries to see beauty and life everywhere around her, even in mundane scenes like riding in the bus or mowing the lawn.
Marna Schoeman uses mainly gouache and acrylic on artists board and her paintings have been taken up in private collections as far affield as the USA and Ireland.
