Impasto Paintings
On exhibit at the Aurora Hills Branch Library, September – December 2015.
Using only palette knives and paint straight from the tube, Ann Marie Coolick is an impasto painter focusing on contemporary landscapes. Ann Marie slathers frosting-like paint layer upon layer onto the canvas, with paint running off the edges resulting in a sculptural, three-dimensional appearance. Ann Marie has exhibited throughout the mid-atlantic including the Arlington Arts Center, Glen Allen Arts Center, Center for the Arts in Manassas, and the Hylton Center. Her work has been featured in Home Goods, Elan Magazine, Creative Digest UK, and L’Officiel Australia. Ann Marie currently resides and maintains a studio in Aurora Hills.
