Margaret Huddy's luminous realistic
watercolors have captured the play of light on land and cityscapes.
Painting a subject, such an antebellum sycamore tree in the
varied light from dawn to dusk helps her study the effects
of light. Years of experience working en plein air enable
her to capture the quality of light she desires when back
in the studio.
This award winning watercolor painter
was born in Philadelphia and studied there at the University
of the Arts and the Moore College of Art. She currently resides
in Mc Lean, Virginia and maintains a studio in the Torpedo
Factory Art Center in Alexandria, Virginia where she has welcomed
