Maria Natalie is a Fine Art Oil Painter based in Chester. Less than two days after exhibiting her BA Fine Art Degree Show in June 2022, she was contacted by both an agent and a gallerist and has been building her practice ever since.

With her favourite medium being water-mixable oil paint, Maria specializes in portraiture but also paints still life, landscapes and pets. She has exhibited in the UK and in Luxembourg, and frequently participates in art fairs and events in the Northwest of England. Her most popular painting series is The Unfinished Finished Series, a set of unfinished portraits of women painted in acidic colours.

Alongside painting, Maria Natalie writes for other artists and entrepreneurs and models for photographers. She takes pride in being able to support and help other artists with their practice as well as building her own.
