Her work appeared at the Taos Portrait Exhibition in 2003. Maries unique approach evolved from her experience growing up in the Deep South where portraiture is a revered tradition and from her mother, a locally acclaimed artist who taught Marie the fundamentals. These idyllic life experiences and raising five children have given her the ability to make an emotional connection with her subjects that ensures the subjects inner beauty and charm come across clearly in their portrait. This is especially true in her portraits of children. |
