Marie Cole is best known for her large landscapes of the Hudson Valley – the farmland and barns, mountains and river. She also paints the salt marshes of the Delaware Bay and Cape Cod. Her intimate works in pastel and printmaking focus on the same themes but in a smaller format. She states, "I love the paint, thick or thin, the viscosity, piled up in layers or scraped down to the canvas, creating texture or smoothness. Paint creates light and shadow, yet, when you look closely, it is still just paint". Cole has lived in the Hudson Valley since the early 60s and now lives in Germantown by the river, in a converted warehouse. Marie graduated from Vassar College and taught at Dutchess Community College for several years. She is on the board of directors of the Tivoli Artists Gallery, and has served as a curator and juror for the gallery. She is a member of the Salmagundi Club in NYC and is represented by Kiesendahl and Calhoun Fine Art. Her paintings are in corporate and private collections from coast to coast.
