About the Artist

M L Porter painting in the lavender fields in Provence.

MARY LOUISE PORTER

“The beginning of a painting is always mysterious to me. A painting develops for me, unraveling the composition, as the colors, line, shapes, and texture seems to emerge on the canvas.”  

 Mary Louise Porter has been selected to represent the Cane River and Northwest Louisiana in John R. Kemp’s  book Expression of Place The Contemporary Louisiana Landscape.  Her paintings were also featured in the November 2014 Louisiana Life magazine. Porter received a BFA and MFA in Painting from Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge. She has participated in numerous artist residencies across the US and Costa Rica. Her work is also included in a number of galleries and other public and private collections nationwide.

Artist Statement

 As a contemporary landscape painter I experiments with colors, lines, and shapes abstracting from reality to create my own contemporary landscape style. Inspiration is drawn from common areas such as patterns of the clouds, vibrant colors of the sky, reflections on water. barren trees, textures, and vivid color patterns. I work with acrylic, paper, plaster and other mediums to engage the viewer emotionally as well as visually in my paintings. 

Creativity and inspiration is the basis of my paintings. It is my aim to capture the emotion and beauty of the location expressed in my unique, interpretive style.   My colors are intense, bold, and sometimes complex to demonstrate the energy visualized in the final outcome. When I enter my studio, I enter another world. It is there that I am free to create, experiment, and enjoy the creative process." “My work represents a journey of memories and images drawn from landscapes seen in my travels as well as experienced in the American South”.
