Mary Espinosa Art

Mary Espinosa

My art is always full of texture and colours inspired by the majestic Canadian Landscape. For more than ten years I have taught autistic children to paint, and to explore sensory stimulation through art.
My love for nature, colours and shapes guides me while creating my art. I identify myself as an “en Plein Air” artist. Usually, I begin a new painting inspired by light, and composition, that has captured my attention and that establishes the direction I take with that piece.
I developed over the years a strong connection with Lake Superior and his majestic beauty. Spending most of my summer painting and teaching there.
Starting with a blank canvas I connect emotions with the moment, nature, and textures of the oil paintings being used. This connection is something that fuels my creative process and makes my art a true reflection of my soul.
