The Old Lady of Epping Art Collection

By Marlene Norcott

About the ArtistMarlene Norcott is a retired artist working from her home studio.Now approaching her eighth decade, painting remains a central part of her daily life. Working primarily in acrylics and mixed media, Marlene’s work is inspired by colour, memory, and the quiet details of everyday surroundings.Art is not a pastime for Marlene — it is purpose.

Making Space for New WorkMarlene paints from a small home studio, where space is limited.Each piece of artwork sold makes room — physically and creatively — for the next piece to be made. It also helps cover materials and keeps the studio active.By purchasing one of these paintings, you’re not just acquiring a piece of art — you’re enabling the continuation of a creative practice that still matters deeply to the artist behind it.Thank you for supporting independent, local art.

And finally…
Thank you for taking the time to browse this collection.Each piece you see here was created in a small home studio in Epping, simply for the love of painting. When a painting finds a new home, it does more than clear space on the wall — it makes room for new work, new ideas, and the quiet sense of purpose that comes from knowing something made by hand is genuinely valued.If one of these paintings speaks to you, thank you for giving it a place in your life.
