Mary Rylant

Mary Rylant Batson is an award winning artist living in Trinidad Texas. Her art studio looks out over beautiful Cedar Creek Lake where the view and her gardens beg to be painted. Her artists eye emerged early as a young girl in Dallas Texas where her first job was in commercial art. Her boundless creativity continued, leading her to spend her life in various facets of color and design, making the world a little more beautiful everywhere she touched. Now that Mary has entered the second phase of her life she can pursue her lifelong passion for art. Mary is happily married with two daughters and four wonderful grandsons.

Mary's art is purely self expression and self taught. Her stylized paintings demonstrate her fascination with color and balance, often times drawing on Mother Nature's bounty. Her work is always evolving as she experiments with multiple layers of texture and color using an unconventional technique she developed. The complexity of her paintings creates depth, and her unique style catches the art lovers eye.
