My own Mary Lee has built a strong Etsy and Bonanza following for her Atlantic Coast Folk Paintings. She grew up on the Nova Scotia Coast and just naturally picked up the knack of producing local arts & crafts.
She’s had to put her creative life on hold, for reasons including selling our old renovated farm house and moving east (close to Peggy’s Cove, it turns out).
She had to post this online: “HAVING LOTS OF INQUIRIES RE MY ATLANTIC COAST FOLK PAINTINGS — LIGHTHOUSES, FISHING VILLAGES, SAILING SHIPS & SEASCAPES! SOON BE BACK AT MY EASEL.”
Well, we ‘re settled into our new digs, retired and concentrating on our creative lives, thank God. [1]
Outsider art, for sure. Mary Lee paints what she sees around her. Growing up in the fishing community of Little Harbour, she knows the ships, the sea, the constant cry of seagulls, the rushing sound of surf on the rocky and grassy shores, the smell and feel of the North Atlantic in the air. A self-taught painter, copying nobody…
And my Mary Lee is able to say, “Ragged Island Studio is my own Online Folk Market for my hand crafted works, my Outsider Art Fair: right now it’s Local Nova Scotia Seascape paintings — and limited edition prints on glossy photo paper. Free Shipping & Postage.”
