Mary Lake - Thompson

Artist Mary Lake- Thompson is well known for her colorful and imaginative artwork she has been creating for the last 39 years. She resides in picturesque Northern California, where the scenery and wild life often inspire her unique illustrations.

Mary began her career after moving to the small town of Oroville, California where she worked hard to create a diverse portfolio of large watercolor paintings. Those paintings became a line of greeting cards and gave way to the beginning of Mary Lake-Thompson Ltd.® With the help of her husband, Richard Thompson, the company has become very successful, offering unique giftware with products such as flour sack towels, aprons, soaps, tote bags and much more.

Her designs may range from blue birds and herbs to candy canes and flying santas, but they always stay true to Mary’s clean and sophisticated style. Her look remains fresh and colorful, appropriate for any style of décor.
