SOLI DEO GLORIA

Marius Prinsloo was born in Pretoria (South Africa) in 1962. He was always fascinated with art and sketched from an early age until he started painting with water colours in 1995. In 1998 he moved from Pretoria to Bredasdorp in the Overberg where he began painting with acrylics and fell in love with the versatility of the medium.
In 1999 he moved to Cape Town and worked as an advertising consultant for a few years but due to the constant demand for his paintings he resigned and painted professionally since November 2001.
Marius specializes in landscapes and seascapes and some of his favourite scenes are from the Overberg, Karoo, Stellenbosch, Franschoek and West Coast regions. He is well known throughout South Africa and specializes in doing demonstrations at festivals and expo’s. Although most of his paintings are done with palette knives it sometimes includes brushwork. His paintings are a unique blend of impressionism and realism with bold and vibrant colours in either acrylics or oils.
