Marisa Mallol
Marisa Mallol was born in Alcoy, Alicante, Spain in 1942. At the age of thirteen, Mallol began here first studies of painting in La Escuela de Artes y Oficios in Alcoy. After completing these studies Mallol began working in the studio and studying the techniques of the great landscape artist, Daniel Pastor, from Alcoy, as well as other well known artists. Three years of studying artistic drawing followed at the Escuela Industrial de Alcoy, under the teaching of the master, Mario Candela, another artist from Alcoy.
With a passion for painting and a love for challenge, Mallol has continued to search out new subjects. Because of her talent and desire, she has been able to encompass many themes in her paintings. Her paintings come together to offer a subject that is simplified, and harmonious.
Most recently, Mallol has turned her attention to creating realistic still life paintings with fruit, flowers and glass objects. These paintings are of sophisticated subjects that are created with delicate and decisive brush strokes that pull the viewer into a world of realism.
Mallol’s paintings can be found in international private as well as public collections.
