Primarily a self-taught artist, Mallory Bratton Rich has studied
pastel painting with Virginia McNeice and at the Woodstock School
of Art. A recipient of three Artist Residencies at the Vermont Studio
Center and an Artist Development Grant from the Vermont Arts Council
and the NEA, she was also a resident at the Art Week on Great Spruce
Head Island, Maine, at the former home of Fairfield Porter. Rich
says "Pastels are my primary medium because of their immediacy,
their color range, and their archival quality…. The focus
of my work is the landscape in the areas I know and love, rural
Vermont, eastern New York, coastal Maine, and North Carolina’s
Outer Banks. I paint both plein air and in the studio, always trying
to capture the elusive and complex quality of light, shadow and
atmosphere." |
