Sumi-e is a traditional oriental art form of (mainly) black ink painting on rice paper. Marjon started to paint in 1985. For a couple of years, she took lessons with Eiko Kondo, who quickly noticed that Marjon had a natural talent, particularly in the zen style, i.e. the art of omitting. She is said to have an exact sense of and a perfect balance in composition. These qualities must be innate, they cannot be learned.
