Artist statement
"Welcome to Marcus Montverde’s Exhibition
I’ve always been an artist and as far as I can remember I was told that I was gifted. Well, I am glad I am; cause I couldn’t Live without it. So I bless God for it. My first formal art education was in Italy from the age of 6 until 13 at school.
I came to England when I was 24 years old and since then it has been a hobby to attend any available art group. My longest training full time in art was in Southampton institute of Higher Education for a diploma in scientific and Technical illustration. As part of my training I attended Southampton University Department of Human Morphology where, while still at college, I helped with the illustration for a book from Prof. D. Mayor “Essentials of Neuroanatomy”. I have also helped for a month in St. Bart’s Hospital in London with a video on sickle Cell Anaemia. During my training in Southampton I learned to use a lot of media but myself my favourite are pencils, ink and acrylic , which sometimes I mix together. My favourite subjects are: animals, flowers; landscapes and humans.
I hope that you enjoy the exhibition".
