Art Bio
Sharon Malley’s art practice centers on her care for creation, with her series of abstracts developed around specific themes such as rivers, the weather, and wind.
Her narratives are a response to and reflection of growing up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland during the Jim Crow era, playing with children of migrant workers and tenant farmers on her grandparents’ farm.
Working in her studio on Columbia Pike in Arlington, Virginia, she paints in oil and cold wax on canvas and wood panels, incorporating mixed media materials, and using brushes, stencils, rollers, sponges and other forms of paint application. Her work is shown in galleries and juried exhibits in the DMV and beyond.
Work is for sale through Touchstone Gallery in the gallery and online at www.touchstonegallery.com. Work not at Touchstone is for sale here. You can also see her work in person by appointment in Studio 12 of Columbia Pike Artist Studios, 932 Walter Reed Dr., Arlington, VA., and in juried shows.
