Baker Artist Portfolios

Mason Owens is a multidisciplinary artist working in Baltimore, MD. He received his BFA from the University of the Arts in 2013 and studied abroad at The Glasgow School of Art, in Glasgow, Scotland. After college Owens completed Maryland's Beginner Farmer Training Program and worked as a farmer, gardener, or landscaper for the next eight years. Throughout this period, he slowly developed an art practice focused on drawing and painting. In 2022, Owens began working with egg tempera, finding its naturalness and beauty an apt extension of his previous interests, and has continued using it exclusively. In 2024 Owens had his first solo show at Steven Zevitas Gallery in Boston and was featured in New American Paintings. Outside of his art practice, Owens works as a residential painter and handyman in the Baltimore area.
