Mary Anne Lund is a fine art landscape painter specializing in watercolor renderings of seashore, wetlands, marshes, and other scenic and historical sites of Long Island.
She has studied with noted accomplished artists, is a member of the Art League of Long Island, Wet Paints Studio Group, and several area Arts Councils.
Mary Anne has always been fascinated with nature and the strong emotional response between atmospheric effects and mood. She captures this in intimate impressions of the environment. Her unique blend of simplicity with select, closely observed detail gives the impression of little serendipitous discoveries - beckoning the viewer to explore what is just out of view.
About her work and inspiration, the artist brings clarity of vision in her own impressionistic interpretation of the landscape that draws a response from the viewer that is filled with poetic imagery. The artist says, "Who among us has not been stirred in their spirit at the sight of a sunlit meadow draped in a vista of wildflowers, a mist on the horizon, or a stormy sky framed against tall beach grass? Walking the beach one can hear the rhythmic sounds of waves breaking and watch for patterns that form in the sand. Feelings are stirred from within at the sight of a gentle, benevolent rain, apple blossoms budding, the sound of gulls reeling in flight, silent snow, the stillness at dawn, the first light of day, and moonlight's spell."
Mary Anne, a native Long Islander, lives at the mouth of the Nissequogue River and Long Island Sound in Kings Park, New York from which she continues to draw much of her inspiration and compositions. Her work is proudly displayed in the Kings Park Heritage Museum.
