About Maria Irrera
Maria Irrera has been living and working on the coast of Maine since 1981. After Graduating with a B.F.A. from Maine College of the Arts (a.k.a.Portland School of Art), in Portland, Maine, she relocated to the Camden area with her husband, David Mclean, an accomplished musician and singer/song writer. Maria's unique way of seeing color and form has been perfected over the years in her medium of choice, cut paper. She has exhibited in numerous juried shows and her work is in numerous collections.
Art has always been a way of life for this artist. Irrera Studio Arts was started by her father and is located in Washington, D.C.. Both her parents produce sculpture that can be viewed through-out the city. Most notably, Leo Irrera was the coordinater and one of the sculptors for the Navy Memorial reliefs.
Irrera Studio Arts in Maine is housed in a finished barn in the small village of Lincolnville Beach
