Artist Comments
Artist Mary Pratt paints a quiet marsh winding through soft green grasses. She fully captures the beauty of the low country in an impressionist demonstration. "I focused on the simple beauty of the waterway, highlighting the softness of the color palette," says Mary. The curving channel elongates the scene and pushes the depth, stretching the viewer's eye and imagination with it.
