Bio

Lily Mars is a writer, editor, and a fine arts and fiber artist. She is known locally for writing local historical articles, as an events reporter and as a local artist specializing in pen and ink drawings.

She enjoys meeting and working with the diverse patchwork of interesting characters that local history brings to the table. She also collaborates with village members for finding facts and interesting tales and works with an interviewer that is a character of his own - a Mr. T. Ebacher.

Lily's art has been made into holiday cards, book covers, brochures and posters. She is detailed in her pen and ink drawings, seeming to capture the mood of the character or the composition in the ink on the paper. She also paints using acrylic, watercolor and oil, and natural and synthetic fiber.
