I am a Maryland Based Nature Artist creating connection with and highlighting the beauty and importance of the Chesapeake Watershed through its flora and fauna. My work is a combination of delicate linework and water-based mediums created on a variety of surfaces including watercolor paper, wood, and canvas.
I consider myself a traditional artist focusing mainly on landscapes and architectural with an emphasis on texture, light and color. I have been teaching Interior Design for 40 years and I am looking forward, someday, to be able to focus on creating art. The medias that I use are oils, watercolor, and pastels in creating my work. Photography is also another one of my interest. I also have a series of nature photographs from interesting trees, flowers and butterflies. Most of my art features places in Maryland. Maryland has some interesting landscape, places of interest and scenery.
Josh Brooks is a Baltimore-based artist known for his distinctive approach to figurative painting, where vibrant color, expressive gesture, and a spirit of romantic rebellion converge. Raised in Cold Spring, New York, Brooks was immersed in art from an early age, studying drawing and painting while dedicating much of his youth to competitive hockey. When a severe leg injury abruptly ended his athletic trajectory, he turned to his love of art, finding healing through his artistic practice. This commitment led him to earn a post-baccalaureate degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art.
