I have recently discovered a truly local great artist whose paintings tend to instil peace in one’s heart brilliantly shown on canvas. Her name is Maris Zammit.

Maris was born into a very artistic family. In 1999, while in Gozo, someone gave her a box of Children’s watercolours with a Miss Piggy on the cover and a paint book, and she decided to copy a picture of a Maltese dgħajsa. It turned out pretty well and from then on, there was no turning back. She studied under Harry Alden and later with Anton Calleja.

Today she is the creator of several beautiful paintings many of which feature Maltese scenery, chapels and even humans. Maris has participated in various exhibitions locally.

I have posted a photo video on You Tube featuring her works and invite readers to enjoy the beauty of her creations. This is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfDpC7KErYM
