Margaret E. Murray

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 western edge of the continent near the vast Pacific Ocean, she also returns frequently to the Atlantic coast and recently has been influenced by time spent in the high 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 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.
