Sarah McRae Morton - Solo Exhibition

Somerville Manning Gallery is pleased to present a new exhibition of paintings by Sarah McRae Morton, on view from November 20 – December 19, 2026.

Sarah McRae Morton’s paintings are woven with stories from her familial heritage, folklore, and historic curiosities. Her often-surreal oil paintings blend reality with mystery or fantasy and highlight her mastery of paint. The events and people illustrated are not bound by time or fact but are immersed with ghosts and artifacts from cross sections of history. Sarah’s work is wildly romantic, with an earthly palette and energetic movement that quiets on key moments.

Sarah McRae Morton grew up in rural Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. She attended the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the University of Pennsylvania. She furthered her art studies in Rome, Italy, and Norway, where she trained with painter Odd Nerdrum. Sarah received a Matisse Foundation Fellowship for her work on the local history of West Virginia and attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. Her work has been exhibited across the country and abroad. She currently lives and paints in Rockland, Maine.

Hours: Tuesday – Saturday, 10:00 – 5:00
