| In the summer of 1970, Mary-June Fox
moved to Rochester, NY. to enter a Ph.D. program in Psychology at the Univ. of Rochester.
Her areas of focus were cognition, life span developmental and social psychology and
personality. Her goal was to figure out what made people "tick" - how they
communicated what they felt and thought, and how they interacted with one another. In the
years that followed, she had two live in relationships, had two sons, bought three houses,
had six jobs, and took adult education classes and workshops in the arts. In the summer of
1994, she joined two groups, Artist Breakfast Group (AGR) and Camera Rochester, which
allowed her to further explore the non-verbal, visual modes of communication. She began to
take her photography more seriously and explored other media. In August 1994, she entered
her first art exhibition. Since then, Mary-June has worked with mixed media: wood, printmaking techniques, monotypes, painting, collage, computer photomontage with Photoshop, 3-D tableaus and clay. Her work was featured in a one woman show at the Williams Gallery of the First Unitarian Church in the Fall of 1998, and her piece Lighting the Fences was exhibited in the national juried show, Woman's Art Works 7. Mary-June revels in the possibilities of color, form, and design to express feelings and places of being. For more information, contact Mary-June at FoxyArtist@aol.com
