Mary Burgess (Studio #2)

Drawing upon her experiences of travel and interest in nature, MaryBurgess expresses herself through painting, and watercolor in particular.She is especially interested in the effect of light and shadow on her subjects. Each painting is begun with a colorful wash which acts to provide unity in the paintings and masterful color shifts reflect the subtleties found in nature. The paint is glazed, one layer over another to achieve a rich and complex color palette.Mary Burgess studied art at the University of Oregon and The Ohio State University where she received a degree in Art Education. Burgess is a resident of Lake Oswego, Oregon, where she lives with her husband and a flock of four chickens.
