Artist of the Month – Mary Rodgers

Mary spent much of her life wishing she was artistic. Mary always believed you either have it or you don’t. Fortunately, Mary’s desire to be artistic outweighed her doubts. She decided to try watercolors, taking online tutorials. Fast forward several years and Mary now understands it’s all about learning technique, and anyone can learn to create art at any age.

Mary has expanded her repertoire to include acrylics and enjoys experimenting with color, technique, and subject. In March, Mary’s Funky Flora and Fauna art exhibit features playful colors and textures in an abstract style.

During March, you can enjoy Mary’s artwork at Sound Community Bank.
