Mary Ann Miro considers her art representational with an impressionistic style.

 

“I am especially drawn to the wonder of color in florals and in outdoor painting.  My goal is to capture that extraordinary blend of delicate harmony and vitality that exists in nature, and express it on canvas.”

 

Mary Ann always knew the artistic, creative side was waiting to be expressed.  As a child, she would receive art awards.  Although she chose to study mathematics and science in college and worked for years in a laboratory, she always wanted to return to her love for art.  For more than 18 years she has been painting and has received recognition with a variety of honors and awards.  She is a member of Oil Painters of America.  In addition to her art career Mary Ann is a Certified Yoga Instructor.
