Hello Community!

1st March 2013 by Margaret Cosper

Welcome to my website. I plan on using the blog feature of this site for discussing my latest projects, art philosophy and to share anything of inspiration.

Art has been a main thread throughout my life — weaving through over 35 years of development of my personal dimension of oil painting – especially in the painting of people and landscapes.

My love of portraiture and interest in people is reflected in a classic yet simple style. My objective is to capture the true personalities of the subjects, invoking a feeling that can be experienced each time the artwork is viewed. Each assignment is an opportunity to create artwork, and to create images that enrich subject’s lives. These representations provide many years of enjoyment.
