Marcela Lobo Crenier

Happy Birthday Marcela Lobo Crenier!

The artist Marcela Lobo Crenier was born on September 12, 1959, in Mexico City. Her father is an architect and her mother a chef of French heritage. Marcela was encouraged to create crafts from an early age. She began her art training in etching, but soon switched to painting. She attended Universidad Motolina in Mexico City and studied art and design. Although she has since studied and worked with various artists in different media, Crenier credits her success primarily to her habitual painting for 8 hour each and every day.

She works in bright acrylic color, painting everyday objects...or in her words "costumbrista". She is also known for her painted ceramics with the Uriarte Talavera. She has had many exhibits of her work in the US, Europe and of course, Mexico.
