About Mary Stahl

I am Intrigued and inspired by the effects of light in the natural landscape, and I strive to capture the phenomenon in my paintings done on location and in my studio. My pastel landscapes, in particular, have been described as having a peaceful or "dreamy" quality that entice the viewer into the scene. In addition to painting the landscape, I capture the color and lighting effects, both subtle and dramatic, of still life in the studio.
