Margaret Davidson, Plaid Spiral, 2014, colored pencil on rag paper, 35” x 29”

Drawing, by its very nature, is an intimate art form. Looking at any drawing, from any time period, becomes an immediate, familiar, private, and intense conversation with the artist. Join curator and artist Margaret Davidson for a lecture inspired by her exhibition Leading with Drawing.

About Margaret Davidson

Margaret Davidson has a BFA from the University of Michigan and an MFA from the University of Washington. She is both an artist and illustrator and, until retirement in 2014, taught courses in Beginning Drawing, Sources of Modernism in Drawing, Aesthetics of Drawing, and various drawing technique classes at Gage Academy of Art in Seattle, Washington.

In her drawings, Davidson focuses on a realistic depiction of the very ordinary and the discoveries of unique singularity to be found there.

Davidson is the author of Contemporary Drawing: Key Concepts and Techniques, published in 2011 by Watson-Guptill, a division of Random House, New York.
