and Museums throughout the USA, Europe and Asia.
Margaret Francis received her Degree
in Fine Art from Winchester Art School in England and her Higher

“Margaret Francis' paintings
reveal a serene elegance, a sense of Godliness in nature. Her
landscapes seem to continue on forever, a sort of transcendental
echo that fuses the beauty of the natural world with light,
colour and an exquisite corporeality. These paintings stand
as testaments to the tranquillity of the spirit.”
Susan Schomburg, Director of
Schomburg Gallery, Santa Monica, USA. |
