ABOUT THE ARTIST

 

Marlena Hinkle

Looking for some beautiful and unique art pieces? Look no further than my collection of stunning paintings! As a self-taught Latina painter born and raised in Long Beach, CA, I offer a one-of-a-kind perspective that you just won't find anywhere else. My passion for painting is evident in each and every piece I create, and I take great pride in sharing my work with art lovers like you.

Join me on a journey through the depths of literature, the vastness of the ocean, and the endless creativity of art. As a young adult, I faced countless challenges, but I found solace and strength in these three pillars of life. Now, I'm excited to share my story and my hard-won wisdom with you. My book provides a roadmap for navigating the ups and downs of life as a creative person, and I can't wait to have you along for the ride. The book is set to be released in the fall of 2024, so don't miss out on the opportunity to join me as we ride the waves together. Come along and discover how literature, the ocean, and art can change your life just as they changed mine.
