Maud Bryt

Born in New York City in 1965, Maud grew up in New York and New Mexico. She received an AB in English and American Literature and Language from Harvard University in 1987 and an MFA from New York Studio School in 2014 where she studied with Bruce Gagnier, Garth Evans, Graham Nickson, John Lees, and others.  She has exhibited paintings and sculpture in the USA, UK, and France, and has works in private collections. Her current work is based on her perception of form, light, color, and the relationship between things, and between people. She lives and works in New York NY and East Hampton NY with her husband, with frequent trips to visit family in New Mexico.
