Marjorie Kinch works primarily with transparent
watercolors because she loves the fluidity and sparkle of
the medium. She finds it stirs the celebration of life within,
and gives her great satisfaction and joy. Hallmarks of her
painting style are the inclusion of dramatic light and the
excitement of rich color.
Growing up in Washington State and now living in the Willamette
Valley for much of her life has given her an appreciation
for the beautiful northwest landscapes and those sunny Oregon
days that she likes to capture in vivid watercolor. She is
drawn to many subjects, including valley and mountain landscapes,
ocean scenes, and florals.
Marjorie is also a professional
photographer, always in pursuit of photographs which stand
alone or complement her paintings. This allows her to explore
light, color, composition and value.
Marjorie’s watercolors
have been in shows and galleries throughout the Pacific Northwest.
She has paintings in corporate collections throughout the
region, and private collections in the U.S. and Europe.
As a former teacher, Marjorie loves to share the delights
of watercolor through teaching classes in her studio for both
adults and children. She and her husband live and work in
Corvallis where they have raised their two daughters.
