Primarily a self-taught artist, Margaret Wiseheart has developed skills as a landscape oil painter by painting from life and direct observation. Originally from Bucks County PA, Margaret’s journey into oil painting began in 2013. Once bitten by the bug, Margaret began to immerse herself into the daily practice of oil painting, both indoors and out. Her painting style was quickly influenced, and continues to be, by the Pennsylvania Impressionists and the Hudson River Valley School of painters.
With a degree in fashion design and background as a dancer, Margaret has spent the most of her professional career in the dance apparel industry, and designing costumes for regional professional theatre and ballet companies.
Margaret is excited to shape the next phase of her life as an artist and teacher and happy to be associated with Catamount Arts, teaching summer and fall workshops. She currently is spending time in Philadelphia and taking continued ed classes in figurative and portraiture at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts.
