Marika is a graduate of the University of Manitoba (Bachelor of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Education) and has been both student and teacher of the arts. Working with selective water-based paints, she creates and interprets the flora and fauna of nature using diminutive strokes of the brush somewhat akin to, yet different from, the impressionist artists. Her palette though uses an exremely wide range of colours - the result of which yields a "texturous" surface to the viewer.
Marika has won awards and received commissions for her work. She has exhibited her paintings in solo, group and juried exhibitions and galleries throughout Canada. Her paintings can be found in the collections of the Govermment of Manitoba, the Manitoba Arts Council, the Ukranian Museum of Lviv, Ukraine. Her work can also be found in ptivate collections in Canada, Seattle, New York, Belgium and New Zealand.
