ARTIST

CONTACT

Born in Kastoria Greece, and raised in Toronto Canada, Maria Modopoulos has always had a deep passion for Art. Maria was awarded a three-year scholarship to study at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO), following which she also attended the Ontario College of Art. These studies allowed her to experiment and develop her own unique style.

Inspired by the Masters, Dali and the world around her, Maria paints primarily with oils, capturing the heart and soul of her subjects.
