Over the years Mares’s painting approach has constantly
evolved. She’s an artist who is not afraid to stretch her boundaries or
push the proverbial envelope. So attendees to her upcoming exhibition
shouldn’t expect to see poppy paintings. However, since Mares
accepts commissions, there is the possibility she could be talked into
something. But the paintings she’s creating now are indicative of
her relationship with her current environment, yet rendered in a
singular style so distinctive it is unmistakably hers.
