About the Artist 

Marjorie grew up in Chicago and trained at the University of Michigan where she gained a Bachelor’s degree in Design, followed by part time graduate courses at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. It was in Chicago that her interest in how light falls on buildings led to the style that characterises her work. She moved to Oxford in 1975 and this exhibition follows the refinement of that technique. She has exhibited widely and her work can be found in a number of corporate and private collections both in the UK and the US. Images of her work have appeared in a number of art publications and on the artuk.org website. Marjorie is a Member of the Society of Women Artists, the Society of Botanical Artists and the Oxford Art Society. 

This exhibition represents a selection of the paintings Marjorie has completed since moving to Oxford from Chicago in 1975 until the present. During this time she has exhibited her paintings widely in galleries in solo and group shows both in the United States and in England – where her work can be found in corporate, private and public collections.  Open exhibitions include The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, Sunday Times Watercolour Competition, Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and the Royal Watercolour Society.
