Margaret Coulsen spent her formative years drawing people and architectural landscapes in graphite, pantone pens and ink, before discovering pastels. In recent years she has refined her pastel painting techniques, becoming particularly interested in the many facets of water and the reflective compositions that the element of water helps create. Architectural landscapes and portraits continue to be a focus for Margaret.

Margaret’s works have been accepted into a number of competitions and she has produced several pastel portraits on commission.

Most recently, Margaret is sharing her passion for painting and drawing with children and young people, developing and presenting a series of workshops for students on different aspects of drawing and painting.
