Water, sun, rain
wood, canvas, paint grow a painting. Maria Walker grounds her work in the fundamental materials of painting: wood, canvas, and paint. This foundation allows for an open, energetic studio practice in which each painting branches, morphs, each pursuing its own specific question, reaching towards life and a better understanding of painting. Walker studied at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, received her MFA in Painting from the Tyler School of Art, and her BA in Visual Art from Brown University. She lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. More of her work can be viewed at:www.mariawalker.net. |
