More Details
Mary Collar is a founding member and also a board member of Gallery Moab LCA. We are pleased to highlight her work this month. Be sure to check out her latest paintings. She is having a lot of fun with her acrylic series!
Mary describes herself as not at all artistic until moving to Moab and being around quirky artists. Then she started collecting art and taking classes.

Landscapes interest Mary the most. The grand vistas, the dazzling desert sun, deep blue skies, glowing sunsets. She enjoys painting with pastels. The colors are lush and rich and can be layered to provide a quality not found in other media. It takes time to decide what to paint and even longer to paint it. She says she can feel the colors. Some paintings are dramatic with intense colors, some soft and subdued. She wants to continue to learn and will always be exploring the next landscape for that scene to paint.

Recently Mary decided to expand her painting experience by learning to paint with another medium. Acrylics provide her with a totally different and very challenging approach to her art. She looks at her work differently now with an eye toward keeping it fun with something new. Mary hopes you enjoy her work as she continues to grow while exploring a new medium.
