| Paintings by Mary
"My artistic repertoire has expanded as my travels have led me to different parts of the world. Starting in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), I custom designed couture and wedding attire for my boutique. My creations then branched into the tourist trade, as I launched African ethnic designs screen-printed onto attire and linens. After emigrating to South Africa, I designed my own range of diamond and gold jewelry, specializing in custom-made engagement rings. I also mastered the art of painting dinner sets on ceramic stoneware. When my journeys led me to a new life in America, my new art creations concentrated on acrylic paintings on canvas. I have successfully executed numerous commissions. Recently, I entered the juried art competition at the Nathan Rosen Art Gallery and my painting was one of the 58 selected, out of the 700 entries received from all over America. My paintings are greatly influenced by the ethnicity and beauty of my African birthplace. Many also incorporate the experiences captured on my many journeys. My forms of artistic expression seem to be molded from the historical collage of a life well-lived." Mary De Monte All paintings use acrylic paint on stretched canvases. |
