Baltimore legends come to Mobtown Studios

Local painter Michael Owen will open a portrait show at Mobtown Studios Thursday from 6-9 p.m. The exhibition features a selection of paintings that Michael recently finished for the new Hilton Baltimore Convention Center and Hotel. The paintings are portraits of Baltimore legends, including Fredrick Douglass, Francis Scott Key and Charles Carroll.

Michael made 22 portraits in total for the Hilton, which will be on permanent display there in the form of one-of-a-kind giclee prints. The pieces at Mobtown Studios are the original paintings and are available for purchase. After the opening, Michael’s work is available to view by appointment only.

Mobtown Studios is a new recording studio, located in Charles Village at 2603 N. Charles St. For more information, visit www.MobtownStudios.com.
