Cookie & Me
Marianne created a stop-frame animation from a song she wrote about her dog, Cookie. All images are hand painted.
Cookie’s Inktober
Inktober is a world-wide art event where artists draw in ink every day of the month of October and share their work on social media using the hashtag: INKTOBER Everyday, artists are to create drawings based from a word prompt that is released at the start of the month.
In 2021, Marianne created her own paintbrushes from twigs and her own hair and an assortment of natural inks made from herbs, leaves, fruits and spices to create a series of drawings from the daily word prompts about her dog, Cookie.

During lockdown, Marianne was working as a visual art teacher in a school for year 11 and 12 students. As some students didn’t have access to art materials, she created a series of tutorials for them to be able to work at home. Now, you can enjoy this workshop too!
