About
Marcel Wissing Boada is a plein air painter, instructor, and traveler. Born in 1998 in Dresden and raised in the vibrant artistic environment of Barcelona, he discovered painting at the age of ten. Since then, he has been captivated by the depiction of natural landscapes through bold and dynamic brushstrokes. After completing his studies in traditional painting at the Barcelona Academy of Art, Marcel embarked on a journey through South Asia, exploring the landscapes and cultures of India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Nepal. Immersed in these diverse environments, he translates his daily impressions onto canvas, capturing the essence of each place.
Marcel's style is a blend of realism and impressionism, with bold brushstrokes and vivid colors that bring his subjects to life. His art has been exhibited in galleries across Europe and Asia.
