Marie is an artist in residence at Coney Island USA, a non-profit artist group operating on the fabled Coney Island boardwalk in Brooklyn, NY. Marie creates the eye-grabbing banners that adorn the exterior walls of the Coney Island Sideshow below,
pulling passers-by in off of the boardwalk to see the latest and greatest attractions! Marie has an incredibly demanding scheduling, spending half of her time in the art studio and the other half teaching art across the river at Fairleigh Dickinson
University in New Jersey. Aspiring artists should listen carefully to Marie's time-tested advice for personal success!
