Manor Mill: Classes, Events & Community in a restored grist mill in Baltimore County MD

Ali Solonche (she/her) is a multi-disciplinary artist based out of Baltimore, MD. She earned her BFA in Studio Art from New York University where she spent time exploring all things art in New York City and Florence, Italy. Ali has been a lifelong creative, following in the footsteps of her grandmother (sorry dad, it skipped a generation), and after being in the corporate world for nearly 10 years, decided to get back to her roots and share her art with the world. When she's not in the studio, she can be found going on adventures with her family, walking her rescue pup, lounging with a good book in the hammock, or naturally, taking pictures of the sky.

Sky Queen Studio is Ali's collage and mixed media business that creates colorful, whimsical and playful artwork to be enjoyed in the home, businesses, publications & beyond. SQS creates pieces that are inspired by pop culture, travel, 90s/00s nostalgia, animals & sustainability. All pieces incorporate recycled or reclaimed materials and/or processes, in an effort to give new life to old things.
