About MaryLee Parker
I began drawing around 8 years old,after a accident that triggered my Epilepsy. It was very Scary timeI grew up in New Haven, CT. Around eight years old I was diagnosed with epilepsy. Around that time, I realized that I had a talent for drawing. However, I started selling my artwork professionally this past year. I began creating cards, and recently progressed to watercolor paintings. I am a mix media artist. Also, I love photography, and have begun snapshots of nature, people, and animals.
