artist
Mary McDonnell’s abstract paintings are expressive visualizations of her sensory experiences of the natural world executed with meticulous and painstakingly layered washes of ink, paint, and turpentine. Utilizing such unconventional tools as bamboo, sticks, and rubber to make vigorous marks, she conveys her responses to the earth and its physicality intimately and deeply personally.
