A woman stands with her back to the viewer, gracefully adjusting her raven hair. She wears a flowing red dress that contrasts beautifully with the soft background. Flowers hang daintily from above, forming an arch-like canopy. This piece conveys freedom and elegance.
About the Artist
Artist Mary Pratt celebrates the beauty and whimsy of everyday life, blending impressionistic techniques with modern flair to capture the world with jovial poise. "I determine colors and aesthetics intuitively," says Mary. Through her gestural brushstrokes—soft ethereal palettes complemented by the occasional bright pop of color—and nuanced style, Mary's paintings offer a fresh perspective on familiar subjects, inviting viewers to experience them in new and imaginative ways. Pivotal moments, including overcoming breast cancer, have shaped her artistic journey. She paints in her sunlit home studio, with music filling the space. Beyond art, Mary spends her time hanging out with friends, playing with her grandchildren, and volunteering.

Mary Pratt
Mary Pratt, a Georgia-based artist, is known for her Impressionistic yet modern oil paintings that capture the world with a jovial poise. Her soft, ethereal palette is complemented by the occasional bright pop of color.
The artist’s aesthetic choices are intuitive rather than premeditated. Through her gestural brushstrokes, Pratt’s paintings summon a joyful, even childlike, emotional response. Her style is nuanced by a range of inspirations, including scenery from the state of Georgia. The personal edge that Pratt brings to each painting alters and enhances recognizable subject matter, cultivating an imaginative visual experience.
