From the rainforest of Guatemala to the desert sands of New Mexico, Mary Erickson captures nature’s shifting moods
and panoramic colors with stunning accuracy and detail. Often seen on the beaches of the Carolinas and Florida, sketchbook and brushes in hand, Mary prefers to
work “on location.” Her beach scenes
and landscapes personify inner strength, beauty, and sensitivity evoked
from nature and shared with the viewer.
Her wildlife and floral paintings invite you to reach out and
experience the delicate softness of a feather, or the ragged, prickly edge
of a leaf.
Mary’s love of nature
is clearly evident in her artwork.
With the guidance and inspiration of the beauty of the natural
world, she has turned her attention to painting wildlife, floral and
landscapes in different mediums. Her
choice of watercolors, oils, alkyds, or acrylics depends on the
subject. Through experimentation
with light and color, technique and instinct, she strives to share the
majesty of nature with us and its deep importance to our lives.
