The Daily Painters of Pennsylvania (DPP) was founded in the fall of 2009 by Mechanicsburg artist Mary Beth Brath. The DPP is an online blog group of professional visual artists that paint on a daily basis and reside in Pennsylvania. Members must be juried into the group and there is a monthly fee. Members are all gallery represented. Most have been published and have won awards for their work. Many have attained Signature Memberships in National and International Organizations. The group continues to grow and now has 48 members.

The website brings the human element to viewing original art online.  Artists discuss techniques, materials, announce awards, exhibits and share the stories behind the paintings.  A personal blog page can be difficult to maintain since first priority is “in the studio”.  In a group blog, everyone works together to keep the site fresh and exciting for viewers and followers. Since the site is so active, it remains high on the search engine and gives the artists a strong online presence. Curators, Gallerists and Collectors have a location to view the work and read about the accomplishments of the group.

Every June the group exhibits in the Pennsylvania State Capitol Building East Wing Rotunda. Visitors traveling from around the world stop to take pictures with the artwork.  The show is now anticipated by the state legislators, employees and general public. 

Brath, the group’s founder, is a member of BWAC and exhibited with the Coalition during the “Black and White” exhibit in 2011. For more information, go to www.dailypaintersofpennsylvania.blogspot.com

Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank You so much!
