Mary Theresa Dietz paints mostly with oil sticks, but she also creates encaustic painting, sculpture, printmaking, and drawing. Her subjects are mainly animals. Sometimes she likes to combine different types of animals and animals with humans. Her influences include folk art, pre-Columbian, ancient Egyptian, and ancient European art, German expressionism, the Fauves, animals and the natural world, and her subconscious.
Her art is her obsession-her reason for living. She uses subject, form, texture, and color to create objects that are more than the materials that make them. They communicate feelings and emotions that can't be explained in words. Her work is all about aesthetics, and her aim is not to make statements, social comments, or illustration, rather she strives to arrest the viewer with a visual feast.
