MARGARET WATERHOUSE

Margaret Waterhouse uses the magic of oils in an impressionistic style to create the speed and beauty of racehorses such as Doriemus, Redoute's Choice and Sky Heights.

Margaret was a finalist in the 2002 Archibald Prize with her painting, "Black Christmas". Margaret was also awarded the "People's Choice" Award at the 2002 Broke Art Festival for her dramatic portrayal of "Joan of Arc".

She breathes the same dignity and grace into her wildlife paintings, having been an exhibiting member of the Queensland Wildlife Art Society.

Her paintings can be found in boardrooms, Hotels and private homes around the world.

Margaret's work is featured in our gallery.
