Nancy
McAleer, a Baltimore artist, works primarily in watercolors.
She is transfixed by the medium’s transparency and unpredictability.
“There’s so much you can’t control: it’s flowing and
alive! I’m constantly being surprised by beauty. The way the colors
run and bleed together is so fascinating.” Her paintings often evoke feelings
of serenity and peacefulness.
In addition to her work as an artist, she is also an accomplished musician on flute
and guitar. Her art, like her music, is an expression of an inner creative energy
that she associates with Spirituality/God/Creator. “Both music and art
put me in that “other place”, where I feel connected to God’s
presence and to the world. Music puts me “there” more quickly
and easily, but it is also more fleeting, whereas painting is more lasting
and permanent.”
Nancy is the music director at Faith Community United Methodist Church. Her artwork
is displayed at various shows, galleries and commercial venues around the region
and in New England. She holds degress from both the University of Michigan
and Johns Hopkins University.
