The artist’s prints have been included in the Annual IFPDA Print Fair and the New York Satellite Print Fair in New York City represented by Stewart & Stewart of Bloomfield Hills, Michigan and the E/AB Fair in NYC represented by Anthony Kirk Editions.
Ms. Prince’s work is in numerous corporate and private collections, including those of David and Susan Rockefeller (NY, New York), Nancy C. Allen (Houston, Texas), Art Bank Program of the US Department of State (Washington, DC), Sloan Kettering Hospital, (New York, NY), Darby & Darby (New York, NY), Harvard Law School (Cambridge, MA), Hallmark Cards (Kansas City, MO), Hofstra University Museum (Hempstead, NY), and The University of Maine Art Gallery (Machias, ME). Her print Somes Sound VIII is featured in Art in Acadia, by David and Carl Little (Down East Books, 2016), and her painting Cold Dew is featured in The Artist and the American Landscape, by John Driscoll and Arnold Skolnick (First Glance Books, 1998).
Trained originally as an abstract painter in the tradition of Hans Hofmann, Mary Prince explores the dynamics of light, color, and texture of her surrounding world. Her paintings, collages and prints vigorously capture the atmospheric changes that animate nature, whether the rugged coastline and pristine islands of the Northeastern coast of Maine or the exuberant fabrics and glassy objects of the still life. The artist often pursues and elaborates upon her motifs in a variety of media: oil paint, watercolor, ink wash, collage and prints.
Born in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia in 1948, Mary Prince grew up in the coastal regions of Virginia and North Carolina. She now resides in New York City and in Addison, ME. She has a Bachelor of Arts from St. Andrews Presbyterian College and a Master of Arts and a Master of Education from Columbia University.
The artist studied painting in New York with Nieves Billmyer, a long time student of Hans Hofmann and a second-generation Abstract Expressionist painter. Turning her focus to landscape and the still life, she studied watercolor and oil painting with John Goodrich, Elizabeth O’Reilly and Henry Finkelstein at the National Academy School in New York. She has also studied printmaking with such master-printers as Anthony Kirk of Anthony Kirk Editions, Sean Wolfe of Wolfe Editions, and Marjorie Van Dyke of VanDeb Publications.
The artist presently resides in New York City and Addison, Maine.
