Marlon Hart is an illustrator/artist with a background in advertising and art direction.  As well as animal wrangling, yoga, karate and acting! Go Marlon!

He has lived in Muriwai for 30 years. He spent his childhood growing up in Vancouver, Canada, which instilled in him a great love of nature, and culturally, left a lasting impression. Working in advertising as an art director and illustrator for more than three decades, Marlon has honed his fine art practice using a wide range of styles and artistic mediums. 

Marlon is currently working on a series of graphic artworks inspired by his Canadian and NZ cultural connections as well as the animals he loves from both of these countries, from Grizzly Bears to Piwakawaka, Moose to Tui - all telling stories from Marlon's fascinating life.
