ary Louise was born in New York but obtained her Diploma at the Slade, specialising in printmaking under Antony Gross. Then a French Government Scholarship took her to Paris where she developed her own colour etching technique.

After successful exhibitions in Paris and London, and teaching at various art collages in England, she moved to Scotland in 1976, with her husband and two children. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Printmakers and specialist in Public Art, with five recent commissions to her credit, Mary Louise has found a new exhiliration in landscape painting made possible by her stays in Greece on Greek Government Scholarships and residencies at the Fundacion Valparaiso in Spain.
Her next commission is Millennium Award Mosaic commission.
