Mediums Used

Marilyn Panto is an accomplished portrait sculptor whose commissioned work is spread around the world, and who revels in depicting the human form in all its moods. Much in demand as a teacher, she fortunately finds the time between this and her commissions to produce these delights and we are lucky to have her in the show.

“For as long as I can remember I have been enthralled by the human form/condition. This has led me to exhaustively draw, sculpt and engage with people. It also led me down 20 years of psychotherapy to understand my own place in this world…”
