Stop on by during Dayton, Ohio's Urban Nights Festival on Friday May 15th from 5pm to 10pm. Please join me for a wine and cheese reception to meet me and my fellow artist Sharon Mohler.

A site to find out what's going on in my art business and to talk about my art.
About Me
- Mary-Anna Welch
- Beavercreek, Ohio, United States
- Mary-Anna Welch is an artist from Beavercreek, Ohio. Upon receiving her BFA and MA from the University of Illinois in Art Education, she shared her love of art in the private and public school systems for over 10 years. After experimenting with several different mediums, she has rediscovered her passion for painting and has settled on watercolor as her main focus. Her work in watercolors has evolved from the very abstract to a more graphic, non-traditional interpretation of her subject. She has incorporated her painting techniques that she used in oil to blend color on the canvas and translated these in her watercolor painting. This results in a blend of traditional colors and images with contemporary styles and forms. When asked about her subject matter, Mary-Anna responds, “I have a black thumb and can not grow anything but weeds. By painting my garden I will always have a rainbow of colors to enjoy no matter what season it is.” Mary-Anna continues to share her love of art by teaching art classes in her studio and at the local art center. You can find her busy painting in her studio or out at gathering ideas in a nearby garden.

Well, I entered the Western Ohio Watercolor society spring show again and once again, I'm in. Sorry about the short notice, (drop off was Friday and I got notified today and of course today was the opening). It will be up until April 5th at the Town and Country Art Gallery in Kettering, OH. I have "Yellow Roses of Friendship" displayed. You can see the painting in my post from October.

What I've Been Up To...
Besides painting my florals, I have been busy working on illustrating a children's book. It was written by my good friend Jo Shepherd Ripley. Stay tuned for more information on when this will be published.
Also, I have been invited to exhibit at One Dayton Center, in Dayton, OH for the month of May.
I'm also working on a new technique. I'll have those paintings up as soon as possible.
Check back often to see what other news is happening.
