Vintage Mary Vartikian Still Life Watercolor

Lovely vintage still life watercolor on paper by Mary Vartikian, (1916-2013).

A graduate of Chouinard Art Institute, Mary Vartikian taught drawing and illustration at Art Center from the 1950s to the late 1980s. She began in the early days at the Third Street campus, and for over thirty years she taught and influenced thousands of students. Professionally Mary worked with costume design at Hollywood Costume and several Hollywood studios. Her personal work included cubist and collage style paintings.

The painting is signed in the lower right hand corner. It measures 12" by 9". There is very little wear. It would look lovely framed.
