ABOUT ME
- My name is Marie Otero. I'm a mixed media artist and spend my life hopping between my beloved Australia and the US. My current passion is digital art and photography, but I love to create new and fun stuff with almost anything I can lay my hands on.

Beautiful work Marie, you took mostly common subject matter and created art! Very impressive.

I don't do much b&w but, as usual, you are inspiring me to try it more often.
