Cirlce Gallery is opening soon! We've got some new rules that we'll be sharing as we get ready to welcome guests again - but we're so excited ti welcome you back to the gallery! Check our website for more info on how MFA is keeping the public and our artists safe.
Wilbricht's dining room is just the perfect amount of space to start her batik projects. From her lovely nighlights to her intricate landscpae piece, her mastery of cloth and dye is powerfuly obvious - and a major part of keeping herself centered and calm. #MFAStudioTour #MischelleWilbricht
MFA Member Jen Rynbrandt's piece "Frank's Farm" takes you back in time to when she and her family would wander their neighbor's country property. Take a look at her process and how she moved her piece from chaos into calm 🌸#SpringMemberShow #MDfedArt Check out all the pieces in the Spring Member Show right here -- https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/spring-member-show-4/
Art can teach us new things - about ourselves, our world, about each other - but how often does it teach you about your dog? Listen to artist Jan Hendra talk about where her inspiration comes from, whether she's painting realism or abstracts. Check out all the Melange II Artists and their pieces right here -- https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
How Chris Kelsey got involved with MFA is a heartwarming little story. But more importantly, have you seen how cool her encaustics are? Chris works with melted wax to make textured pieces that showcase realistic landscapes and portraits. Actually amazing. Check out all the Melange II Artists and their pieces right here -- https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
There might be nothing that Sarah wont do to get a perfect photo. Laying in wait in Italian streets, for example. Fluttering clothing on hanging lines and flowing dresses make for unexpected movement - but also, just look at how Sarah takes her photos! 📸 Check out all the Melange II Artists and their pieces right here -- https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
Chris Rapa has been working with new mediums lately and she's thrilled to show off what she's been doing. If you want to see all her pieces - and all the other Melange II artists - click here to be transported to a mix of what MFA members are working on -- https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
Have you checked out Melange II? We've got the whole show online, including all of Jennifer Rynbrandt's acrylic pieces. It's super worth checking out on our online gallery - and far more stimulating than just scrolling the timeline this lovely Friday night 🖌 Mix it up with a little Melange --> https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
We're going full digital - and maybe a little stir crazy. Not to worry though, Circle Gallery might be closed but MFA has got plenty to distract you. Listen to Melange II artist Merrilyne Hendrickson talk about how she ended up in Annapolis and got into watercoloring 🎨 #MelangeII #MFAmember
Today Tracy Barwick takes us through the inspiration for each of her Melange II pieces. Check them all out in our online gallery and the twelve other Melange artists --> https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
Circle Gallery is open for business - but we totally understand if you can't make it into the gallery. Instead, we've filmed all of the Melange II artists talking about their pieces so you can get a peek without even leaving your couch! Check out the whole show online later today, and we hope you're staying safe. We'll see you tomorrow for the next Melange artist. --> https://mdfedart.com/portfolio/melange/
