Since the early
1980's, the work of Margaret
Warfield has involved the
creation of works on canvas and paper.
Initially her work reflected images
reminiscent of her childhood,i.e.,
landscapes of the hills of Tennessee. Her
chosen medium, at that time, was oil paints
and occasionally pastels. Over the
years,however, she switched to acrylic
paints, enjoying the ease of covering a
surface quickly with vibrant opaque colors.
In the early1990’s she began to paint scenes
of African tribesmen and women. This was a
result of many trips to book stores and
libraries whereshe researched and studied
facets of African culture. During this time
she also re-discovered her love of cloth and
her wish to createflowing fabrics, on the
bodies of her images. Contact Ms. Warfield and
