About the artist
Hi, I'm Mary!
My husband, Greg, our two beautiful children, and I currently live in Southern California. .
I'm happiest when my little family is cuddled up all together for a movie night, when I have a paintbrush in my hand, when my sourdough starter is bubbly and waiting to be mixed into bread, and when we're knee deep in projects for our 20 year old new-to-us Airstream.
If we could spend the morning together, I'd invite you over to our tiny home, serve you a big Mason jar of hot peach tea, and ask you if you mind some extra cuddles from our Goldendoodle puppy, Huck.
I like to find God in the ordinary bits of life.
The inherent beauty of God's creation inspires me daily. I strive to be a woman who serves others even if just in the mundane spaces of ordinary life. I firmly believe the act of creating has the power to transform the human heart. My spirituality is centered on the act of finding God in all things. My background is in Catholic ministry (I used to run High school and college campus ministry programs) and I I still work for our church part-time.
My gentle beginnings as an artist...
Creating To Love was born in 2017 out of listening to the deepest whispers inside my heart. I am a self-taught artist who has spent years developing and refining her style.
my art is my ministry. I create in order to bring more joy and love to the world.
