Alayne Abrahams
Trained in art since childhood, Alayne completed a Certificate of Fine Arts degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, Md., and a Bachelor of Science degree in Therapeutic Recreation from the University of Maryland. Ms. Abrahams has recently begun to accept private commissions for fairy portraits and spiritual/healing portraits. She works from photographs to create one of a kind paintings which can become family heirlooms handed down from generation to generation. Healing portraits are designed to honor those who have lost loved ones. These custom art works are a collaborative effort between artist and customer.

Alayne is currently a member of the Society for Art of Imagination, International Society for Experimental Artists, National Association of Women Artists, National Watercolor Society, and the Pennsylvania Tri State Artists Equity Association, Inc.
