Maybelle was born in Dublin,
NH in 1907 as Mabelle Richardson
and raised in the Dublin / Hancock / Peterboro
area of New Hampshire.In the 1920's she
studied under George DeForest Brush in Dublin.She
graduated from Keene, NH in 1927. She studied
at Boston in 1928 & 29 before going to new York,
where she studied from 1930 - 1937. She married
Willson Stamper in 1937. ( This was an unhappy narriage
and this period influenced her style of work ).She
changed her name to Maybelle and kept her married name
of Stamper for the rest of her life. She followed this by teaching
at the Cinncinati Art Academy from 1938-1943.In the 1940's
she visited Nova Scotia several times with friends and we
have unknown/uncataloged landscapes and lithographs
from this period as well. In 1943-46 she visited
Captiva Island in Florida. She fell in love with the
island and made it her home for the rest of her life. She
painted landscapes, modern art, portraits etc, whatever
it took to survive in the early period , becoming a talented,
listed and well know artist through all this. Above
all, she is best known for her lithographs and rightly so.
We have early works of hers on masonite, paper, paper bags, canvas.
As she was a relation, this description will be added to as time
goes on, and we dig up the notes left by her. Her work
has been in major exibitions from the 1930's through the 1990's.
She died in 1995 leaving hundreds of cataloged pieces.
Nearly all of the pieces offered here are NOT included in
her cataloged works. See the publication "Songs Of Maybelle"
assembled by Jay Williams / McKissick Museum /
University of South Carolina.
