About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Mary Pratt paints an ethereal figure with a billowing gossamer white skirt. The woman gazes through a sea of floating lights, framing her and spilling around her gentle stance. Mary paints intuitively, evoking emotions while provoking thought, both visually and conceptually. "I allow my work to guide me, and the outcome almost always surprises me."
About the Artist
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, Mary’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 Mary brings to each painting alters and enhances recognizable subject matter, cultivating an imaginative visual experience.
