ARTIST Margaret Smith

 


Originally from England, Margaret is a retired secretary who studied art for many years at several colleges in England.  The media she used were many, but she promised herself that when she retired, she would concentrate solely on watercolor.

Margaret resettled to the United States with her English husband in 1986 and built their home, which meant there was little time for painting.  However, living in the Texas countryside, surrounded by nature, her dream was kept alive.  Retiring in 1993, Margaret was finally able to fulfill the promise to herself.  She concentrates on watercolor paintings of Texas wildflowers and cowboys, portraits by commission, English and Texas landscapes.  Margaret's paintings are in private collections in England, Scotland, Australia and towns and cities throughout the United States.
