Marie Aldrich


I think the urge to create is universal, it dwells within each of us. I realized this creative need quite early in life, with the creation of my first wall mural (in orange crayon) at the age of two.

I feel it's still this same force that guides me to paint and explore new art forms
today.

My acrylics on canvas contain texture, warm and metallic colors and also collage-like compositions with actual pieces of metal and semi-precious stones worked into the paint.

I can customize paintings by size, color scheme and crystals used, i.e. pink quartz for love energy or pyrite for prosperity energy. I can customize paintings for areas of the bagua and Feng Shui placement as needed.

If my work resonates with
you and you’re interested in selling it or commissioning
a piece please feel free to contact me at :mariealdrich@ymail.com.

Crystal Canvases

My acrylics on canvas contain texture, warm and metallic colors and also collage-like compositions with actual pieces of metal and semi-precious stones worked into the paint.

I have always been drawn to abstract designs and the creative process itself.

My work embodies my interests including: nature, textiles, interior design, Feng Shui, dreams/dream analysis and energy work. My art is influenced by all these ideas melded together.

Painting is my passion. I love to do it. I am drawn to new ideas, colors and how the paintings take shape almost magically.

My artistic process is completely intuitive and I don’t have preconceived notions before I start a new series of paintings.
