New Arrivals: Marie Fischer



Of the many great artists we represent here at J. Todd Galleries, there is one artist in particular whose new work we are always excited to see. That is because Marie Fischer continues to suprise and delight us everytime she shows up with new work. Although she is best known for her lively and whimsical figurative paintings, over the past few years we have seen the background and environment continue to take a more prominent role in her pieces. Some of the new pieces we received show an even larger divergence from what she has done in the past, the figures are still present but play a much lesser role in the pieces in favor of the still life arrangements. The sign of every great artist is a willingness to push the envelope and strive to always improve their abilities even after they have achieved success in one genre.
