Mary Veiga won 2nd place in this year's competition. Tim and Marie talk about her win as a relative newcomer to the Plein Air competition circuit. She discusses her process of developing her style and the challenges of tuning out the destructive thoughts that undermine our ambitions.

 

Growing up in beautiful Maryland farmland, Mary naturally drew inspiration from her surroundings. Spending time riding her horse through the striking abundance of the landscape instilled in her a strong sense of attachment and belonging. This inspired her to share her experience through artistic expression. Demonstrating a natural ability and interest from an early age her work began drawing awards and recognition. Mary went onto formal training at The Maryland Institute and College of Art in Baltimore, Maryland. Her fine arts education continued with acclaimed landscape artists David Buckley Good, John Brandon Sills, and colorist Camille Przwodek. Her early influencers include Edward Hopper, Robert Henri, and William Merrit Chase, and remain evident in her work today.

 

In 1995, Mary began her art business as a professional artist and master craftsman painting murals, Trompe l’oeil, and faux finishes for residential and commercial clients throughout the Baltimore Washington area. Her extensive practice and training with both dimensionality of color and texture enriches the experience of her landscape paintings. Her work has won many awards and been featured in ​Good Housekeeping Magazine,​ ​Chesapeake Home and Living,​ ​The Tidewater Times​, HGTV, WJZ–Channel 13, the ​Baltimore Sun​ newspaper, ​Baltimore’s Child,​ and more.
