Maggie's profile

I am an artist living in Pigtown in Baltimore. Recently retired from my “day job” as a Nurse Case Manager I am now free to be a full-time artist. I do not like the word “retirement”. To me it implies I was tired once and now I am tired again. I prefer to view retirement as a graduation and my last day of work as commencement. I am excited to see what I will create as I move forward.

 
As I paint, I attempt to challenge myself. 
I consider every painting as a practice piece since I am constantly learning. I am attracted by bright colors and bold images. Baltimore can be very fascinating and beautiful. Cape Cod and Rehoboth Beach are quite inspiring. For reference I observe my environment closely and take photographs of images or people that I find interesting. Sunrise is my favorite time of day. For several years as I walked to work at sunrise, I took pictures of the Inner Harbor and downtown Baltimore. My photographs have been on display in the past.

I like every painting I show and offer for sale. I become attached to them and when I sell them, I hope they go to a good home where they are loved as much as I love them.
