Margaret Huddy Western U.S. Landscapes

"Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that last as long as life endures." Rachel Carson

Margaret's landscapes are all painted en plein air. Working on site forces one to react quickly to the subject. She lets the landscape speak to her and dictate the style in which she will work. It is impossible to paint wet into wet in the desert or on dry paper in northern Maine. After working on location for about four hours Margaret returns to the studio where she studies the painting and reinforces the values and colors in order to create a painting and not be just a slave to the view in front of her. In the studio is where the brain takes over from the heart.
