A Name to Know: Madeline Peckenpaugh

Our monthly spotlight on a rising artist

Madeline Peckenpaugh is an artist you should know. The daughter of two painters, Madeline’s fate as an artist could be attributed to forces out of her control. She’s the type of artist so thoroughly obsessed with the act of painting that she often leaves the studio counting down the minutes until she gets to return. For Madeline, painting is a second language; the way she communicates her experience and perception of the world in all the ways that words can’t quite achieve. With a smattering of upcoming solo exhibitions, it will be hard to miss this rising star.
