HELLO, I’M MARIE
ARTIST • PHOTO RESTORER • VISUAL STORYTELLER
I’m a Wagga Wagga artist with a lifelong love of photographs, family history and the stories held within treasured objects.
Through careful restoration, digital brushwork and visual storytelling, I help preserve memories and bring them back to life.
MY CREATIVE JOURNEY
Creativity has always been part of my life, shaped by family photographs, rural Australia and a deep appreciation for the stories of ordinary people.
After the loss of my husband, Robert, art became an important part of rebuilding my life. Returning to photography, restoration and digital painting helped me rediscover purpose, connection and a new creative direction.
Today, I combine traditional artistic values with modern tools to restore photographs, create heirloom artwork and develop short visual stories inspired by memory.

WHY MEMORIES MATTER
I believe photographs are more than pieces of paper. They hold familiar faces, shared histories and moments that connect one generation to the next.
Every photo has a tale to tell. My role is to help restore its voice.
EVERY PHOTO HAS A TALE TO TELL
Whether you have a photograph that needs restoring, a treasured image you would love transformed into artwork, or a story waiting to be brought to life, I would be honoured to help.
