Mary Back
I started painting in the 8th grade and later took many art classes at Towson State University, Harford Community College and University of Maryland. My main media was watercolor for many years and then I started with oils. My main watercolor teacher was Dorothy Braum and my oils teacher was Erlinda Fitzpatrick. I have won awards in watercolor, oils and pottery. I teach art camp for Worcester Art Council. I like painting local nautical scenes.
