GUEST SPEAKER - Artist Marian Rennie
Marian currently runs a studio gallery at Acheron. She is very proud of her family history, being farmers in the Wonnangatta Valley prior to Lake Eildon being developed, and then settling at Acheron, where she is still living on family land.
She has had a colourful life, working as a tram driver, hot air ballon pilot, travelling the outback and working on prawn trawlers in her early days.
Marion has established her gallery in Acheron, where she also maintains the garden displaying her sculptures and caters for visitors. She has had a busy life, with diverse artistic occupations, such as fabric design, dinner ware design, interior decorations, sculptures, and artwork on canvas, working with many mediums, although mainly using oils recently. Marian has participated in many international and local exhibitions and has captured wonderful life experiences along the way!
