Ithaca Paintings: Old and New By Ed Marion

Ed Marion is a New York City native who relocated to Ithaca in 2002. A city lawyer trapped inside the body of a country artist, Ed took up painting 5 years ago to transition from litigating to creating. Ed's passion is sketching, painting and rendering people and their portraits. The son of a carpenter who could make anything from wood, Ed has adapted his father's handicraft to the field of art, using oil and acrylic paints to create vivid and memorable likenesses of Ithaca and New York City on canvas and board.
