Margaret Archbold
Reflecting on her current work, Margaret says ‘my painting has changed direction in the past few months. I have worked towards a new style, almost unaware. Having spent a lot of time in my studio in the quiet of lockdown, I found myself pouring back over sketchbooks from 30 years ago. Discovering line drawings of flowers and plants, I started to develop a new series of work. Using these as the starting point for the current work, I am conscious that the memory of executing the original drawings feels like yesterday. The circle is a nod to a found object, it has given my work a continuity.
