Upcoming Shows
Maureen Minard
"Title Unavailable."
June 26th - September 24th, 2023

Maureen is an abstract painter and teacher in the Washington, D.C. area. She explores memory, local landscape, and fractured realities. Maureen uses acrylic, oil pastels, graphite, and ink on canvas or paper. An art historian, Maureen reframes the tradition of landscape painting with intuitive painting methods. Using a playful palette and layering of referential shapes, Maureen’s work rejects pressures to depict neat and tidy landscapes. Instead, she complicates the truth of our unique perspectives and recollection of the composition of familiar space.
