Meet - Mary Spellings

I love the spontaneity of watercolor painting, especially on wet paper, and the way it captures light and life. I cherish the medium's unpredictability, but sometimes I opt for predictability to achieve a specific outcome. I enjoy using vivid contrasts and engaging the viewer with color and texture. My creative process is a constant exploration of transforming the mundane into the remarkable. My paintings emerge from the interplay of light and shadow, and lately, I've been exploring texture in a whimsical manner. My goal is for the observer to perceive the world through my artistic lens. I aspire for my work to command attention and encourage a renewed appreciation for the everyday light and life that we often take for granted. Life is a precious gift, yet we tend to rush through it without savoring each moment.


As an artist, my watercolors capture both light and life, as seen in the Regions Bank displays. My work has won many awards. I earned a BA in studio art and refined my craft in workshops led by esteemed watercolorists. I'm a signature member of three watercolor societies and co-founded Art in the Village. I live in Mercer, where my rural lifestyle inspires my creativity. Ask me about my sourdough recipe anytime.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I'm an artist!

I love making art. My fascination with the natural effects of weather on metal surfaces, the lines etched in faces, and patterns on a variety of subjects led me to become an artist. I love the whole process of putting color, value, and shape on a canvas. I hope you can see the subjects through my eyes and enjoy the experience.
