Margaret Milne was born in Methil, Fife in 1957. After graduating from Dundee’s Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in 1979, she invited friends and family to sit for portraits or produced still-life paintings when no models were available. Her interest in painting portraits of sitters in their own homes, surrounded by their own objects was soon reflected in her still-life paintings.
Margaret continues to live and work in Dundee where she is a part-time lecturer at Dundee College and continues to work as a portrait and still life painter. Exhibiting widely throughout the UK.
Noah’s Ark and Still Life are original oil and watercolour paintings. Both capturing the objects that surround Margaret in her studio. Capturing the collection of objects, she surrounds herself as well as the materials she uses, in a playful, colourful way.
