Mary Adams

Hi! I’m Mary, a 28-year-old Texan artist based in Wollongong, Australia. I grew up in the USA before moving to Australia after I graduated from University with a degree in Nursing. When the pandemic hit I became burnt out and turned back to art, reviving my passion and motivating me to pursue it as a career. Working mostly with charcoal, I create surrealistic drawings inspired by my imagination. I enjoy the challenge of drawing something that’s not real, in realism. I believe imagination to be my greatest asset.
