Mary Blue is an American artist, currently living on the North Norfolk Coast, in the UK. She is a lover of the coast and large open landscape countryside views typically painting wide boards to show the flow of hills, trees, rivers, coastline, sand or sea. In 2019, she also focused on a series of small square individual flower forms. Her art is represented not only in the paint she applies to board but also the poetry she often inscribes within a painting.
“My painterly work weaves in written words with layers of jewel-toned colours and reflects upon the impermanence of life and the powerful forces of nature. I paint the cultural imprint history leaves on the landscape, echoing the sound of ancient footsteps from centuries ago, of fishermen collecting cockles in the creeks, of farmers bringing in the harvest.”
