Mary Crocker Fassett

Boston native and Cape Cod transplant Mary Crocker Fassett (1915-2016) was a self-taught artist who worked in various mediums — drawings in charcoal and ink, paintings in oil, egg tempera and pastel, intaglio engraving and etchings, ceramics, and sculptural materials — for some 80 years. Much of her art was created in her home studio in Truro, MA, where she lived from 1980 until her death. Daughter of portrait painter Truman Edmund Fassett, her work has been shown locally at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, Castle Hill Center for the Arts, and the Schoolhouse Gallery, among other places.
