Maryse Newton
I have enjoyed creating since I was a young girl and continue to find it essential to live a balanced life. Painting is the way I process and express the beauty I am surrounded by along the Seacoast. Primarily I use acrylic paint, yet I find working in a variety of mediums keeps my skills fresh and playful. I mostly work in studio yet enjoy working en plein air when inspired. The focus of developing a series is part of my art practice, allowing me to explore more deeply the subject at hand. I earned my BFA from the College of New Rochelle, a helpful stepping stone in developing my creative skills as a designer and painter. I was juried into the NHAA and have been a member since 2021. My studio is located in Kittery, Maine at Art on the Hill. I continue to learn and grow as an artist and individual.
