Margo Garnett

As a very young child, I realized I was to be an artist, because of the encouragement of my family and partly because my early attempts at art were successful.  I also had great mentors who encourage me to continue with my art.

I have always studied art even while I pursued a career in nursing.  I always found ways to do art.  Our move to Oregon in 1979 gave me the chance to continue my education in art at Oregon College of Art.  I have always been a freelance artist, even while doing nursing.  I have done freelance art for hospitals, doctors, churches, clinics and businesses.
