Mary Ann June

Mary Ann was born in Weirton, West Virginia, a small town along the Ohio river.  The main industry at that time was Weirton Steel, an integrated steel maker that employed just about everybody.  But early on in her life, Mary Ann knew she wanted something else for herself so she started doing sketches of rock artist and other popular figures while still in grade school.
 
Mary Ann entered and won her first contest in junior high for designing a poster for “The King and I.”  And from then on she never looked back.  Some of her current designs include teddy bears, Christmas and sign art.
 
When Mary Ann lost her sister Barbara after a prolonged illness, she set her brushes down and didn’t paint again until after her marriage.  With the encouragement of her husband, Mary Ann picked her brushes back up and made up for lost time.  Now she is back where she wants to be and with God’s grace Mary Ann will never set her brushes down again.
