Mary’s abstract style requires greater participation on the part of the viewer. Abstract works are open-ended in regard to their interpretation. The viewer is not bound by predefined images and their associations. The mission pf her work is to evoke a feeling, not to depict a specific image.
“Mary’s work deals with the quality of light, both reflected and that which comes from within: the latter corresponds to one’s spirit.”
“Her paintings illumine what we suspect about the essence of the world. . . they are about healing and joy.”
“The visual clarity of these paintings function both on a personal and universal level.”
“Mary’s Tudor’s work is painted with the third eye.”
