M-J de Mesterton, the Original Rock Painter
M-J de Mesterton is the original rock painter, one of the most searched and viewed contemporary artists on the world wide web. M-J started creating psychedelic paintings of rocks and gems in 1975; her distinctive style has been imitated, never equalled. M-J de Mesterton paints the western landscape up-close. Her work is divided into vibrant and multi-layered rockscapes and mystical compositions that suggest a higher plane of creation through elemental materials. M-J de Mesterton's paintings bridge the gap between representational and abstract conceptions--they celebrate the power of nature to transform mood; they bring balance to the environment in which you place them. M-J's paintings are beautiful expressions of a world that makes life possible.
Oil paint derives from rocks and gemstones. M-J de Mesterton paints canvasses in a wide range of sizes up to 66" X 72". Her wildly popular and well-reviewed show in Santa Fe last year was called Oil Medium, Large and Small.
