About the Artist
Mary Josephine DuBois lived most of her life in Santa Cruz, California. After retiring in 1981, she pursued her long-held passion for painting, producing regional landscapes and pastoral scenes throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Her works, often signed simply “M. DuBois,” reflect a love of California’s rural scenery and are collected locally as part of Santa Cruz’s cultural history. She lived to be 106, with her artistic chapter documented in both her obituary and local news features.
