Mary Rochelle Burnham has always drawn. Inspired by the gentle prodding
of her childhood friend, she drew her first life portrait at the tender age of eleven.
Through the urging of her father, she began commission work shortly thereafter.
She would eagerly experiment with multiple mediums and techniques. After briefly considering a career in the medical field, Mary's passion for art lead her
to pursue a lifelong career as an artist.

Mary resides in Manchester, Michigan with her beloved husband Richard.
