Artist Profile

Mary Ann’s passion for Art has been long-lived. It has been a process of much education formal and private, experimenting and creating.

She paints a variety of subjects and mediums that are very expressive and relate to the viewers thoughts and feelings in a personal way. She does that by creating a mood, a place, a person, a time of day or a season.

She enjoys working with architectural subjects, city scenes, house portraits, animal portraits, children’s toys and portraits.

She creates from photos, abstract ideas, and plein air adding many personally embellishing features.

She was the Co-Vice President of Hyattsville Community Arts Alliance for many years and has been Chair of the reception committee.
