About Mary Adrene

Mary Adrene Burback has always believed that each life experience leads to and enriches the next.  As a girl growing up in Louisiana she was drawn to exploration of color and texture while learning to paint.  Mothering two wonderful daughters she continued to experiment with color and texture in fabrics and yarns while sewing, knitting, and quilting for family and friends.

After moving to the Pacific Northwest 15 years ago, Mary Adrene yearned to create memory albums that would reflect the wonder and excitement of her exotic travel destinations, with her husband Larry, and of the significant events in her family and friends’ lives. The Northwest also played a role in heightening her awareness of texture and the interplay of light and shadow. She learned the art of bookbinding and brought her own exquisite color sense to the process of creating albums as works of art.  Paper is now her medium and albums her focus.

Mary Adrene’s life has brought her here.  She would love to create a beautiful album for you.
