Mary Hills Powell Bio
Waterscape Painting
I am enjoying a new career as a painter of waterscapes. I love painting reflections, transparencies and opacities in water. Light creates such abstract colors, shapes and distortions that are fascinating to interpret with paint. I think about how often reflections, transparencies and distortions affect how we see our world and how we see each other.
I have been an artist as long as I can remember, growing up in Memphis, Tennessee. I took classes at the Memphis Art Academy one block from my house and graduated with a Fine Arts degree from Vanderbilt University.
My first career was in advertising in Dallas, then after moving to the northeast and raising three children, I earned a teaching certificate and taught high school painting and drawing in Hartford, Connecticut for 15 years. During those years I joined a group of Artists in the Neighborhood and held an art show and sale every year.
I have recently moved to Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, and love working on my own painting full time.
