Artist of the Month Display at Clare Bank, Platteville

Marsha Kremer, Artist of the Month


Throughout the month of February, Rountree Gallery’s Artist of the Month display at Clare Bank in Platteville will be featuring the artwork collection of Marsha Kremer.

Marsha has been hooked on photography ever since receiving her first camera during the 1940’s as a birthday present. One of her greatest inspirations came from taking a photography class at the University of Dubuque taught by renowned photographer and photojournalist, Archie Lieberman. Marsha says, “He lit an indescribable fire inside of me that fueled my desire to achieve better technical skills and to tell a more memorable story with each photo.”

Today, Marsha is motivated to create photographic prints to share the amazing beauty of the natural world with others and wishes to gently encourage everyone to start looking for the beauty that is always around us. Technically, Marsha prefers not to manipulate photos in the darkroom or on the computer. Instead, she focuses on capturing beautiful lighting and precise compositions that form the basis of great photographs. She believes then that artistic excellence becomes possible, even using the simplest of cameras, without a camera bag full of gadgets. Combine this technical focus with Marsha’s love for animals, flowers, and all things country, and the result is a large stockpile of photographs that showcase the natural world in all its glory.

Marsha invites you to see a sampling of her artwork at Rountree Gallery’s Artist of the Month display at Clare Bank, located at 345 West Pine Street, Platteville.
