ARTIST Mary C. Lopez

 

Mary, a native San Antonian, studied art in high school and later at the Coppini Academy of Fine Arts in addition to intensive pastel and oil painting workshops with award winning artists. She is a member of the Coppini, the River Art Group, a charter member of the Regional Artists Consortium, Rockport Art Assn., and Austin and Central Texas Pastel Societies. Dedication to producing quality art has earned her numerous awards including Best of Show at the 2005 River Art Group annual Show. Mary's paintings can be found in private and public collections. She has shown her support of KLRN PBS by donating artwork to their annual auction. Mary teaches pastel painting at a local Hobby Lobby, the Northside I.S.D. Adult & Community Center, and OASIS (a program for seniors). Since 2002, Mary sponsors an annual Pastel Art Show which showcases her student's artwork. Producing paintings that touch the soul, sharing with others the joy of painting, and striving always to improve is Mary's goal.
