Working in any medium that can be applied with a paint brush, Mariah’s current subject matter focuses on all things that convey joy at the very first glance. That could be a portrait of a child, a powerful figurative painting of a circus performer or a mural of the simple pleasures of life. Finding that these subjects naturally lend themselves to positivity, optimism and resilience; the themes that she finds the most urgency to highlight in today’s turbulent society. With each new work she pushes the boundary between classical and contemporary realism styles.
