Marta, also known as “Mimi” was born in Havana, Cuba and was exiled to
the USA after the communist revolution. Since her early years, Mimi always
had a passion for painting. After graduating from an Interior Decorating and
Design School in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Mimi put her career on hold to
become a full time “Mom” of three. Mimi decided to return to her love and
passion of painting when her youngest child left for college.
Ever since, she has taken workshops from Marc Chatov, Albert Handell, Anita Louise
West and Sherrie McGraw. The artist has also studied under Deborah Ankrom Kepes,
Carol Baxter Kirby, Nancy Honea, Tom Williams, John de la Vega, and Karen Hewitt
Hagan, and is currently studying under Teena Stern, Jim Schell and Kristopher Meadows.
Her work is held in private collections throughout the United States and Europe.
Marta currently resides in Marietta, GA and can be reached at Marta@MartaSuarez.com .
