Who is Mary Beth?
Mary Beth’s work is inspired by the natural world—big and small, alive and dead, tangible and ethereal. The organic forms, shadows, and shapes that are innate on rocks and in landscapes are all part of the visual language she documents. Color, line, and the tactile nature of objects are explored consistently through Mary Beth’s body of work as a whole, including her book art pieces, text-based series, and work with fabric.
Born and raised in New York state, Mary Beth received a BFA in Communication Design at State University of New York in Buffalo. She has called Endwell, Houston, Atlanta, and Perth home over the years. In 2019, she moved to Albuquerque to be closer to the landscapes, hikes, and beauty of the Southwest.
In addition to making and exhibiting her artwork, Mary Beth has worked professionally for the past 20+ years in arts administration including positions such as art consultant, gallery manager, and program director.
