MARY ANN SUKLA
Yardley, Pennsylvania
Born 1949

Mary Ann holds a Degree in Fine Arts from the Bucks County Community College and has completed an Independent Study in Art Philosophy with a focus on Abstract Expressionism at Vermont College of Norwich University. Mary Ann uses her surroundings and combines them with her thoughts and feelings in creating her work. She mosly utilizes acrylics, oils, and pastels in her pieces which would be best classified as non-representational free form art. She likes to characterize her work as "vibrant, colorful, and emotional." Her paintings start out with a particular idea, only to result in something very different. She believes that change in one's creation is an inevitable result of the change that takes place in one's creative spirit.
