Mary Proctor was born June 11, 1960, in Jefferson County, Florida.
In February, 1995, while grieving for her grandmother, aunt and uncle, who were killed in a house fire, Mary had a vision in which a sweet voice directed her to "paint the door." Since that time, Mary has painted compulsively. Upon the surfaces she paints, she also glues buttons, sticks, pebbles or broken pieces of glass, mirror or plates. To her, reassembling the broken pieces represents a mending process. She sees herself as a missionary and the people who purchase her work as the deliverers. Mary Proctor has only been painting for a short time but has already received international attention. Raw Vision magazine published an article about Mary in the winter '99 issue. She is also included in the permanent collection of the Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore, Maryland, as well as many private collections. |
