Mary’s paintings have been influenced by exposure to different cultures and sights when traveling.  She takes many, many digital photos which serve as inspiration and information while composing her paintings.  Sometimes several reference photos are combined to create one composition, other times one photograph is so completely expressive that it alone serves as inspiration; however photo-realism is not the artist's goal.  Other paintings evolve totally from the imagination.  Studying under a variety of local and nationally-recognized artists has given her fresh insights and abilities to portray what she has experienced.  She feels that her art is not only self-expression, but also the passion to share a vision. 

Mary's work is on exhibit at the Artists' Guild Gallery of Anna Maria Island in Holmes Beach, FL; Studio 1212 Gallery in Clearwater, FL; and at Grecko Grill in Madeira Beach, FL..

Recent awards include 3rd Place Watercolor and Honorable Mention Watercolor Awards, August 2007, at the 48th Annual Alpine Artists Holiday in Ouray, CO, a national juried exhibition. Other recent awards include 2nd Place Professional Collage at one of Colorado’s largest annual shows, the 45th (2007) Annual Glenwood Springs Fall Art Festival, 1^st  and 2^nd  Place Professional Still Life Watercolor at the Glenwood Springs Fall Art Festival, September 2006 and those won at The Alpine Artists’ Holiday (2006), the Transparent Watercolor Show at the Beach Art Center in Indian Rocks (2003, 2004), Treasure Island (2003-2005), and Oldsmar, FL (2003).

Mary is a member of Studio 1212 Gallery, Artists' Guild of Anna Maria Island, Creative Artists’ Guild, the Beach Art Center and Glenwood Springs Art Guild.

Mary is from Colorado.  She is a graduate of Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO with a degree in Art Education.  She is married and is the mother of two adult children.  She and her husband, Bob, now make their home in Florida.
