Margaret Abramshe received a BFA at the University of Colorado, a degree in Art Education from Florida International University and a Master’s from the University of Northern Colorado. Margaret works in her studio in Utah, creates workshops, and lectures. Her artwork has been juried numerous exhibitions locally, nationally and internationally.
My process includes painting in layers of glazed water soluble mediums on printed linen cotton canvas. The painted composition is layered like a quilt with non-woven batting. Using a sewing machine I create a contour drawing over the composition adding patterns of colored thread. All the raw edges are finished by hand. The soft canvas floats on a support slat just beyond the wall.
