“There’s a strong sense of drawing in these paintings: of a line searched out and followed; of shapes reduced and simplified into potent motifs which grow more and more eloquent as the onlooker’s gaze settles. Often the rhythm of the line becomes dance-like. Mara’s deep interest in calligraphy is reflected in the subtlety, sensitivity and fluidity of her line.”
Helen Dunmore, ‘Lightness of Being: Felicity Mara’s Lyrical Abstraction’
