About me
My name is Margaret Bruton and i am a self-taught artist born in South Africa and now based in the United Kingdom.
I work from a compact studio in the former HMS Belfast ticket office situated on a floating pontoon on the Thames in London. As you can see from the image..space is very limited! 😳🫣
I have developed a distinctive artistic practice that embraces both limitation and freedom.
Surrounded daily by reflections, tides, and the industrial poetry of the river, my paintings try to capture a sense of emotional energy that is both intimate and expansive.
My art often explores themes of transition, resilience and connection.
It is a visual language that is vibrant, instinctive, and deeply personal.
Each painting reflects a lifestyle built around creativity, adaptability, and immersion in the elements.
