Mary Lynn Whale
Edmonton, Alberta
Watercolour and drawing are my main medium. As a left-hander, I revel in the realm of calligraphy but acknowledge my limitations. Paper is my ground of choice.
I have a lens for an ageing aesthetic. As an artist, I am moved by the titillating nature of asymmetry and imperfection of the ageing process. I seek the beauty, the poignancy, the drama, and the authenticity in all my subjects. People as subject matter are of special interest to me. I believe each person has a basic need to maintain dignity despite the circumstances of their lives. The complexity of combining the physical and psychological elements of characters has infinite possibilities for artistic expressions.
