BIO
Lynn Mocarski Maurer received her BFA from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where she studied under the renowned Rita Deanin Abbey and sculptor John McCracken. She also studied Trompe L’ Oeil with Bonnie Chumley (New York artist John Chumley’s daughter) and figure studies with SoHo artist, Jack Beal. Her first profession, homemaker, sidelined her fine art career as she raised a family—only to lose her husband to cancer at a young age. In 2005 she returned to oil painting on canvas, board, and copper plate as well as highly detailed, large-format graphite studies.
From her studio in Winchester, Virginia, she has mounted shows in oil and graphite as well as sharp-focus still-life commissioned oil paintings and elaborate graphite drawings. Her solo shows and selected exhibitions including a Corcoran Museum of Art juried exhibition and two one-woman shows for DuPont Circle’s Alex Gallery A.
Recently, Lynn’s highly-received exhibition at the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley, Such Beauty, was displayed from April through December 2024. Since 2020, Lynn’s art has been showcased at the Tavern gift shops at Michelin three-star Inn at Little Washington.
Lynn has received two Washington Post feature articles with a positive review by Mark Jenkins for her exhibit, Passing Impressions.
