Tom Mullany: New Paintings in the Gallery



We just received three amazing new paintings in the r.h. ballard gallery from Rappahannock artist, Tom Mullany. The above work is entitled, "Colossus of the West". Several of his new works were inspired through recent travels across the United States and from local events.

For those who do not already know, Tom is my talented brother.  We've represented his work in our gallery for 12 years and he has been a favorite with art collectors nationwide for over 30 years.

Tom is a graduate of the Corcoran School of Art and has exhibited throughout the United States in many solo and group exhibitions.  He is represented in numerous private and corporate collections and his well-known murals can be viewed in many parts of the Washington, D.C. area, and in restaurants, banks, law offices, homes, and public spaces.
