"Maureen Oliver's paintings could be described not merely as suspended reality, but as another dimension of reality. They encompass the vividly swirling colours, textures and perspectives of modern art, but in more recognizable story forms. A viewer will be mesmerized by the human drama, while still experiencing a universal interest in wishing to know more about the character. No photograph could relay the coldness of pain or the warmth of sun as well as Oliver's palette and passion, and in this, she displays her total conviction to emotion.

"Spirituality-based themes are often found in Oliver's work, yet are comprised and blended with mythological and Catholic imagery. Her works expertly reflect a lifetime of art from the instinctive pursuing of it as a child, to a training professionally in history and theory. Maureen Oliver is a native Londoner who resides and exhibits her work throughout England while pursuing the goal of spiritually reaching people with her art."
