About the Artist – Mary lives in Fells Point and paints in her garage studio behind her home, with many of her paintings done on location. Since resuming painting in 1999 she has attended workshops at the Hilton Head Art League, the Scottsdale Artists School and MICA.  She has had 4 solo shows at the Unicorn Gallery And Frame Shop in Fells Point and has participated in numerous group shows in Baltimore and New Orleans.  Her still-lifes include typical Maryland vegetables, scenes of Patterson Park, night scenes of Baltimore waterways, scenes of Maryland’s Eastern Shore and St. Francisville, Louisanna. Mary Bickford is one of those rare artists who is unassuming in regard to herself. When one views her paintings, one cannot but catch ones breath and instantly want one to keep as close as possible. Good painting brings order and not chaos to the lives of a hectic world. Everything changes so rapidly these days, but Mary captures the old with the new and she does it with all her heart.

Artist Statement – Mary enjoys changing the subject and location.  She doesn’t wish to be boxed in with subjects.  Life changes and new paintings are always on the horizon.
