Mary Newham Artist : Oils, Acrylics, Pastels and Water Colours
Mary in her studio.
"Landscape is the major source of inspiration for my artworks. I am particularly interested in the effects of weather and time of day; and the subsequent light, colours and atmosphere within a landscape. Sky, reflections, surface textures and shadows are often a particular focus. Working predominantly in oils I prefer to paint on site, trying to record and share my visual awareness of places of beauty and interest within the Yarra Valley and beyond.
Another aspect of my work involves equestrian pastel, and also paint sketches from direct observation where I try to immediately and quickly capture a sense of the movement, power and grace of individual dressage horses and riders."
