Marcia Baker's energetic and vibrant watercolor paintings represent her connection with the woods and coast of Maine. She is known for her underwater scenes of trout and salmon. Vivid Wildlife images, such as moose, ravens and wild birds, come to life on paper and canvas. She is an avid ecologist and sportsman. Favorite outdoor pastimes, like kayaking, canoing or sailing to her favorite coastal island, are woven into stories. Sporting Images of fly-fishing, Nordic and alpine skiing, hiking, bird and duck hunting are captured from experiences with her husband. Yet wandering in a lupine field portrays moments of peacefulness. She is now expanding in oil painting as well as pastel media. Her paintings also include her adventure trips to the Amazon River, Alaska, and Newfoundland. Her aspiration is "to pass on those inspiring moments to you."
