Marsha Solomon

Marsha Solomon has been living and working as a painter in New York. Before moving to New York, Solomon received a B.A. in Art from the University of Maryland, and did graduate studies in painting at the highly regarded Maryland Institute of Art, and later at the Art Students League in New York.
