Mary
has always had an interest in Art and Design. She originally studied Interior
Design, but she has found her real passion is painting pictures in Oils, Watercolour & Acrylics. She moves between Abstract Expressionism and
Abstract Impressionism, but always with a love of vibrant colour. Many of her paintings are Abstract Seascapes which are influenced by her walks in Malahide and other coastal areas but she puts her own
imaginative spin on them.
She
also has a love of Abstract Expressionism, and these paintings are very emotive
and are probably representative of her emotions on that day. She feels the
beauty of Abstract Expressionism is all about freedom for both the artist and
the viewer, and its roots are in ‘intuition’ of the artist. She has studied the
psychology of colour and is a great believer in how our lives can be enhanced
by colour and she is first and foremost a colourist.
Mary loves Art History and has a diploma in Fine and Decorative Arts and several certificates in the
History of Art from the I.P.A.V. in Baggot St.
She keeps up with current trends by visiting galleries at home and
abroad. She is very passionate about all aspects of art, whether it's history or
painting. She has also volunteered in The National Gallery of Art . Mary has exhibited in recent years in the R.D.S. at the
Horse Show, Art Source , The Ideal Homes and House Interiors. She exhibits her paintings in The View , Malahide Marina, Co. Dublin, and can only be seen by appointment with the artist .
