Artist of the Month
PebbleCreek Artist of the Month
for February Marielle Ramsey
The PebbleCreek Art Club honors
Marielle Ramsey as Artist of the Month for February. A native of Martinez California,
Marielle has also resided in Greece, Turkey and most recently Sedona. A year
ago she and her husband Mike moved to PebbleCreek. During this first year, Marielle
has enjoyed golfing with the Nine Holers, being involved in the Lend me a Tenor and the Bedroom
Farce productions of the PC Players, and most especially her Art experience.
Marielle is a juried member of the National Watercolor Society (NAWS).
Please view her paintings on display in the clubhouses: The Jerome Hotel and No
Golf Today. If you have ever been to Jerome, the first thing you notice
is the Jerome Grand Hotel. The Hotel served as a hospital until 1950. Writings
from that time describe the hospital as the most modern and well equipped hospital
in Arizona and possibly the United States. As you can see she has studied the
history of the hotel as she attempted to capture the pride of the town in her
painting. The inspiration for No Golf Today was a trip to Flagstaff
two years ago. The drive was absolutely beautiful as there had been fresh snow
from the day before. She made a stop in Munds Park for a quick bite to eat,
then took a drive around to look at their picturesque snow covered homes and
an old church. Marielle then decided to combine the buildings with a Red Golf
Bag, as Munds Park has a great little golf course, which of course had No
Golf that day.
