Mary Morton was a British sculptor and water color painter who studied at the Bristol School of Art and, from 1911, at the modeling department of the Royal College of Art. Living in London for most of her life, she mostly painted portraits, figures and buildings and modeled portrait reliefs, plaques and medals, using marble, bronze, ivory, plaster, silver, lead, and wood. Morton attended exhibitions in France and the United Kingdom. For almost 50 years she exhibited works at the Society of Women Artists and was a member of that group from 1935-65. She was awarded a gold medal at the International Exhibition in Paris in 1925. In 1928, Morton was appointed Associate of the Royal Society of British Sculptors.
