Marcia Coppel's paintings are influenced by the color and spontaneity of Mexico.  She loves to sketch in restaurants, cafes and on the beach. Her May 2017 solo, Connect/Disconnect 2, is about communication and the lack of it in today’s digital culture. The interactions (or isolation of individuals in the same space) could have been situated anywhere in the world.  But since she loves Mexico and spends a lot of time there, she made drawings and paintings situated in that country.
