Gilly Marston lives in Beckwith Township in a forested area with a large vibrant marsh behind the woods. This home and extensive travel through North America, birding and taking photographs, has provided material and inspiration for her art. She is an artist and photographer whose major focus is nature and landscape. In her photo images there is often an exploration of natural abstraction as exemplified in the ‘Earth & Sky’ series of forest floor and reflected sky. Landscape images are created from layered photography of texture, colour and light. 

Her recent art projects have mostly been divided into two series.The ‘Northwest’ series and the highly distinctive ‘Tide’s Out’, which focuses on a close-up view of seashore life.

Gilly has sold her art and photography at local association juried art shows: Arts Carleton Place, Manotick Art Association, and West Carleton Arts Society.
