Mary studied at the Chelsea School of Art and Central School of Art in London in the 1980s. Mary's paintings are a response to specific subjects, an exploration of composition, light and colour through the medium of oil paint and watercolour. Mary's subjects are varied, from landscapes and portraiture to still-life, and it is the play of light and resulting colours and tones that concerns her. Mary likes to convey the responses to these observations and feeling for intense colour through the physicality of paint.
