Mary Gaines
Photography & Jewelry
Artist Statement:
I love nature and where I live on beautiful Whidbey Island, Washington. I began my art journey years ago but then had to take a break to care for my late husband Larry. Since his passing, my passion has returned to full force, for photography and painting in different mediums. Acrylics and oils are now my favorite mediums, and my goal now is to capture as many of the nature, landscapes and sunrises on canvas as I can. This is my way of preserving all those precious memories I’ve been so very blessed to have shared with Larry. They are from our trips throughout the Pacific Northwest and national parks on the west coast.
I am honored to share these with you here at Garry Oak Gallery.
Biography:
Mary is a self-taught artist/photographer, and loves capturing the beauty Whidbey Island and the Pacific Northwest have to offer. She has called Whidbey Island her home for the past 38 years, and has traveled to many amazing national parks on the west coast.
Her love of photography can be seen in the colorful and bold scenes she has captured. "Sunrises and Sunsets" are her favorites and Whidbey Island certainly never disappoints. Some of her other interests are painting in watercolors, acrylics and oils, each have their own unique style.
Art runs in her family, all her children and grandchildren love drawing, painting and being creative in the arts in one form or another.
She is very blessed to be able to share her photography at Garry Oak Gallery, you can also find more of her artwork at:
