Mary Mapes: I am an artist who is always searching and studying in an effort to better my God given skills. I have an incredible retired life filled with a loving husband and family and happiness provided by having time to do some art, some riding, some enjoying of nature and some relaxing. I live on a farm in Southern Michigan.. It's beauty fills me with inspiration every day. I am a professional artist, it is my career and I do accept commissions. I can paint you, your dog, your horse or your house! You can check out more art a:t www.mary-mapes.artistwebsites.com/ I feel humans have a need for creativity. We are all born with this urge for self-expression. When fulfilled, there is the reward of accomplishment, peace, and inner joy. There are many methods of self-expression; for me, it is oil painting, really painting of any kind. I feel such well-being, contentment and serenity when I am painting that I lose track of time..
