What People Are Saying…

  • ‘She is one of the most dedicated artists that I have ever met. Her work is always thought-provoking.’

    Maria Etheridge, Cyprus Open Studios

  • I recently commissioned Mary-Lynne to produce illustrations for a children's story called 'Laia and the Elf,' which is based on a local Ibizan legend. We had face to face discussions about the story, the characters and the setting, following which Mary-Lynne produced beautiful illustrations, perfectly capturing the colours and textures of the Ibizan landscape that provided the backdrop to the story. Thank you Mary-Lynne.

  • I've had the joy of being coached by Mary-Lynne to rediscover my confidence and ability to draw and paint. She is both a wonderful artist and a very talented and patient teacher. In her workshops, not only did she teach me some very useful techniques, but also helped me to intuitively reconnect with my creativity. I highly recommend working with her.

  • Thank you for showing me that I can paint and draw without that inner critic breathing down my neck. It's such a pleasure to be able to do that and, in these confinement times, has been a real life saver. You've taught me to look and to see so that now, more and more, I'm seeing everything with more awareness. I particularly enjoyed taking the lessons in whichever direction we felt we wanted and kind of bouncing off each other. It was so inspiring - all the different approaches - drawing, learning to use acrylics, watercolour, pastels, charcoal, wax crayons, feathers, sticks...Drawing with our eyes closed was an eye opener! For me, freeing up to trust my inner 'duende,' the artist goblin within, was all. What a revelation! If I can just get out of the way, out he jumps and does the work. Zen. Thank you for enabling all that in such a kind and supportive and fun way with no pressure and only constructive criticism. To say you've changed my life is not an exaggeration. I could be lonely and bored and a bit sad in my old age, but now there's my goblin, always at the ready! Huge, huge Thank You.
