Mary Bennett
 | Biography: As a native of the Bronx and now living on a Caribbean island with family roots in Malta, Mary Bennett's interest in multi-cultural portraiture is no surprise.

Although largely self-taught through study of the Masters, Mary has also taken art instruction at SUNY Purchase in New York and engaged in private tuition. She makes a particular point of experimenting with different forms of mediums but most closely chooses to work with pastel.
