Diane Marsh’s paintings present imagery of conflict, contemplation, and resolution through her depiction of life-size and larger-than-life figures juxtaposed with objects of nature or text. Although painted in a hyper-realist manner (artwork akin to high resolution photography) Marsh’s work almost surpasses meticulous renderings by often painting her subject’s skin as nearly translucent, revealing veins flowing with blood or red, almost raw skin surfaces. By doing such, the artist conveys vulnerability and emotion. Often in her work, Marsh includes words from world philosophers and in "The Ending of Sorrow", Marsh references the late writings of Jiddu Krishnamurti, an Indian philosopher and writer.

It was an eventful day for Diane Marsh of Estancia as she was awarded a fellowship by the Jentel Artist Residency Program. Jentel Arts is situated n a rural setting on a working cattle ranch in Lower Piney Creek Valley, 20 miles southeast of Sheridan, Wyoming. While Wyoming is a far cry from New Mexico, they both have beautiful sties to offer. "I am going to enjoy experiencing the cities of Buffalo and Sheridan, Wyoming as they are both very historic western cities, so that will be nice," Marsh said. "Then just being in a quiet place with a couple of other artists and getting some work done will be a nice change of pace." Sheridan and Buffalo are 47 miles apart and straddle the Bighorn National Forest. Marsh is among the award recipients focusing on their own creative projects at this working retreat for artists and writers. A panel of arts and literary professionals review samples of artwork and manuscripts before making final recommendations for the residency awards.
