Missionary Mary Proctor

I met Missionary Mary Proctor on one of my first adventures out to buy Folk Art. I started out collecting and buying what I liked; and I liked Mary’s art.

Our friendship has grown over the years.

I told George when I first became involved in the folk art world that what I liked most of all was the sincerity and accessibility of the artists. They each have a story to tell as to why they are creating and they are always eager to share their stories with you. Folk artists are not like the “artsey” crowd. They have nothing to prove to anyone. They just have all these great ideas and most are creative to the point of compulsion!!! and they never throw anything away.

Mary has a deep spiritual calling in her life that will not allow her to stray away from her true form. She is always mindful of her grandmother, aunt & uncle that died in 1994 in the house fire and couldn’t find a door to get out. The doors she creates are her message and a dedication to her family.

She uses other found objects in her paintings and creations. Fabrics, old blue willow plates, S & H green stamps, tin box pieces, coins, buttons, keys, marbles, anything ! She throws away nothing.

She is a blessing to know. An inspiration to do what you enjoy doing and also an encouraging voice to keep on keeping on!
