“As her career progressed, Mason’s art continued to be confident and ambitious. She showed in New York, across America, and internationally. In addition to her paintings, Mason produced an impressive body of work on paper, in which her signature technique of layered veils of color is especially remarkable. She was at her most experimental in these prints and oils on paper, developing ideas that would later inform her canvases. Mason was also a fierce advocate for other artists, first and foremost her mother, who died in 1971. She became a dedicated teacher and mentor for young artists, servings as a professor at CUNY Hunter College for over three decades.”
