Mary Reynolds
contemporary artist
An East Anglian for many decades, I set out with my pocket compass, to draw, to paint and to diary a slice of Norfolk life where passions run high and the leitmotif ranges from the insular to the worldly.
about mary
Graduating from Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, in 2011 with a BA (Hons) degree in fine art from the College of West Anglia, I seek to work with that qualification as my benchmark.
My interest in art goes back to childhood days designing motifs for children’s sweat shirts though I went on to qualify and work as a registered nurse for 35 years.
Finding expression through the application of watercolour on paper ensued later, joining groups in Norfolk and Suffolk. It is a beautiful medium by which artists can soak up atmosphere and light, learn and become part of a community.
I have some exhibition pieces in the making when oil will take a role, representing our ancient City of Norwich. Many people love to visit the city to witness its position in the UK and its connection with the wider world.
