Jodie Fowler Marshall, Scottish artist and educator lives with her family next to the Trossachs in the beautiful Port of Menteith. This rural location has given her a deeper understanding of the importance of our connection with nature, the seasons and community which continues to inspire her work.
Jodie’s own illustrative, mixed media work focuses on the joy of process and learning through materials using collage, mono print and drawing primarily inspired by the Scottish natural landscape, natural form and colours.
Education has always been at the core of Jodie’s practice, with over 10 years of teaching experience. Embracing creativity and the benefits it can bring to improve health and wellbeing in our fast paced and technology driven world Jodie has recently established ‘Create Club’. A pop up art and craft workshops for kids and adults, with a focus on mindful exploration and experimentation. Create Club provides a safe relaxed space for small groups to learn and enjoy exploring new materials together. With an emphasis on using local or sustainable materials and an ethos of developing and nurturing creativity and connection in our community.
