Paul Napoleon Moscatt’s figural and portrait paintings have been featured in solo and group exhibitions, both locally and nationally. Known for his bold use of color, he has done a series of self-portraits as well as many portraits featuring musicians. Paul himself plays the piano and mandolin by ear and describes his art as “painting by ear.” Born in Brooklyn, NY, Paul Moscatt attended the Cooper Union School of Art in New York City and received BFA and MFA degrees from the Yale School of Art. He was professor of painting at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) for 30 years and was chair of MICA’s painting department for some of those years. Retiring in 2000, he continues to paint and to teach privately, both in his Station North studio and in plein-air classes.

Carlene Bausch Moscatt, a native of Kennett Square, PA, has an undergraduate degree in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and a master’s degree in craft and design from MICA. With this background, she has found paper to be an ideal medium for combining the two fields. She has created a body of “paperwork” in which she has incorporated art into the ancient art of papermaking. “As you make the paper, you are actually working on the art,” she explains. Carlene taught at MICA and at the Waxter Center for Senior Citizens.
