   Maria Marino brings the vivid colors of her working day-time landscapes into the evening with her pastel nocturnes. See far more of her work (both equally working day and evening) in our Voices of Practical experience write-up. We have questioned some of our favourite artists to demonstrate us examples of their night time time paintings and to explain to us a little bit about their processes in this series of Nocturne Notes.
Marino shared with us these two illustrations of her exuberant, expressive pastel nocturne paintings. She advised us that her aim is in “catching the mystery of that particular time of night”

   “In the stop, it is about getting the viewer to really feel

fairly than to understand, to examine alternatively than to look at,

and to like it rather than to move it by.”
