About the Item

“Fountain and Fan” by artist Mary Spencer is a 22.5 x 30 inch surreal mixed media painting on paper with dominant colors of blue, red and white. The painting is signed and dated on the front and back. Mary Spencer’s works on paper investigate gaze as an extension of the heart and a porthole to the past. Her work is highly influenced by symbolism, nature, and water imagery, as a reminder that we are all but a fragile presence on the planet’s shell. Mary Spencer received her BS from Nazareth College of Rochester, New York and her MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. She taught at Sheridan College of Applied Arts and Technology in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. She was a proofer and then journeyman dot etcher working with wet etch and dry photo masking techniques for Boston area printing companies. Her work has been exhibited widely and has received numerous awards. Spencer is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.
