Distinguished Baltimore artist John D．Ferguson died September 16. The Catonsville resident was 81.
“His artist eye was in everything he did. His life was art and his family，” said Jennifer C. Jackson, who was Mr Ferguson's friend for nearly three decades.“He was a lovable man who was always willing to talk about any topic he was interested in. At shows, people would go crazy for his work，” Ms Jackson said. “He was also an enthusiastic sailor who loved nothing more than being on the water.” “His sculptures were just memorable，” said Mr Lund, a Washingtonian. “I used to say, ‘Ferguson, I don't think you know how to do anything that is less than monumental.’”
Mr Ferguson earned a bachelor's degree in 1961 at Holy Cross University, where he developed an interest in painting. He served in the army for two years until being discharged in 1963, and after studying briefly at the Boston Museum School, registered at the Chicago Art Institute, where he studied until 1966, when he entered the University of Illinois Chicago, where he obtained a bachelor's degree in 1966 in fine arts. Mr Ferguson developed his interest and skills as a sculptor after moving to Baltimore to do further studies at the Maryland Institute College of Art's Rinehart School of Sculpture, from which he graduated in 1971 with a master's degree in fine arts.
“Over the years my work has moved gradually in the direction of elegance and simplicity，” Mr Ferguson wrote in his artist statement. “Heavy, bulbous forms have been replaced by dancing, winglike forms.” The welding process and respect for the qualities of the materials are interrelated and affect the final piece. “Most of the sculptures that are pictured in my works are made from steel, silicon bronze, and to Cor-Ten steel; shaped to create these beautiful and unique pieces of art. As you can see, my sculptures range in size anywhere from 12 inches to 30 feet or larger.”
Through the years, his work found its way into such major public and private collections. “They encourage optimism, for they show strength and affirmation; there's nothing negative, depressing or anxiety-ridden about them，” wrote the late art critic John Dorsey in a 1997 exhibition review.

Every day since early July, Tiffany Wong has been painting a small watercolor of one woman and then sharing the printing on the Internet，providing background information about each woman.Wong started the project to give more people a chance to learn about the different roles of famous women in history，“We don't really get to learn about them in our school as much，” Wong said.“I wanted to make the women's history more available for people so that they wouldn't have to do the research and they wouldn't forget their achievements.”
Wong's interest in the women's history started young.As a child in California，she read books about women, including scientist Barbara McClintock，doctor Elizabeth Blackwell and other outstanding women.
The idea to develop her own women's history project was inspired in part by a free course through HarvardX，Harvard University's developer of online courses.Wong has worked there for the past five years after learning international education policy from the university.The Schlesinger Library provided another inspiration for Wong.In 2018，she visited the library's 75th anniversary exhibit，which told the stories of women through 75 documents and objects.
As an artist since childhood，Wong decided her project would include both paintings and research about the women.“The written part of the post consumes energy and brain and often takes longer than the painting，” Wong said.Whenever possible, she used original sources and quotes, often referring to papers and other documents.
None of the paintings includes the facial features of the women，which is a painting style that makes the paintings easier to do, while giving people an opportunity to see themselves in the image.“I wanted something open，” Wong said.“I wanted people to feel like they could also be these people.”
Her subjects occasionally notice her posts.In February，Wong wrote about the career of Merritt Moore，a physicist and dancer with an undergraduate degree from Harvard.Moore share the post with her own followers and left a comment for Wong.“Wong! I'm so touched — thank you! Love this! ！ ！” Moore wrote.
