This month through April 2012, we are welcome local artist Matt Mahler for his second engagement at the Studio. Matthew holds a Bachelor of Science in Biological and Agricultural Engineering from Louisiana State University. He has attended various fine arts painting and sculpture courses since his first course with Mrs. Carolyn Pellegrin in 1994. He has studied painting at the Baton Rouge Academy of Art and the Arts Center in St. Petersburg, Florida. He has also studied sculpture in Pietrasanta, Italy with Artida Arts, Inc. and in Rutland, Vermont with the Vermont Carving Studio. His works are noted for the attention to detail and bold architectural and seascape images.

He currently resides in Raleigh, North Carolina with his wife, Luisa Mahler and children, Nicholas and Emily.

Matthew Mahler is the 2012 Signature Artist of the Triangle Chapter of the American Red Cross’ Carolina Nights Ball being held at North Ridge Country Club in Raleigh.
