Marian McEvoy

"

I think of my motifs and patterns as ‘indoor gardening.’ Most of the shapes and colors I concoct don’t exactly exist in nature, but I wish they did! Imperfect, a little kinetic, a lot graphic, frankly folklorique, and very willed, I hope they bring a sense of whimsy and pleasure to everyone living with them.
