Project Updates
- This blog will document Margret’s NEW project: Lessons from the Pharaoh's Tomb. This latest body of work in her Lessons Series was inspired by a trip to Egypt in January 2009. The new paintings will feature imagery and pigments used since 3500 BC. During the coming months similarities between historical pigments used in tombs and temples from antiquity to that of the much later Golden Age of Dutch Art will be discussed. Please join in for this exciting new exploration.
Note: This blog began during the creation of eleven paintings inspired by the 17th century palette of works in Rembrandt and the Golden Age of Dutch Art, an exhibition that traveled in the U.S. during 2006-07. All eleven paintings were presented as my exhibit, Lessons from the Low Countries in Portland, Oregon, June 2007.
