Animal Love Summer

As Marion Peck's magical and bucolic landscapes unfold, an uneasy melancholy fills the air - the birds are chirping but the sounds are not quite right. The viewer pauses and questions the reality Peck has created, as well as reality itself. Themes of hope, despair, mystery, nostalgia, love and death recur throughout Peck's work alongside motifs of dreams, big-eyed animals, natural landscapes, doe-eyed children, royalty and peasantry.
