Margaret E. Murray

<div><div>Born
and raised in the District of Columbia, Margaret E. Murray has lived in
San Francisco for most of her life. Inspired by living at the edge of
the continent near the vast Pacific Ocean, she returns frequently to the
south Atlantic coast and has spent time in the Caribbean, Australia,
and the Arctic. Her abstract landscapes in intaglio, relief, and
monotype emphasize color, shape, texture, and pattern.
Murray is an artist in residence at KALA Art Institute in Berkeley
and a past member of Graphic Arts Workshop in San Francisco. She has
exhibited her work in galleries in San Francisco, including Studio
Gallery and the Drawing Room. Murray has studied printmaking at the
City College of San Francisco, KALA, Crown Point Press, and the San
Francisco Center for the Book and holds a bachelor’s degree in Semiotics
from Brown University. Making has been her way of life since she was a
child, and pressing ink into paper is a thrill hard-wired into her by
her great-grandfather, a Scottish letterpressman.
