Margaret Mathews is a long term member and previous Hon Sec of the USWA. She is a retired dentist, who practised in Islandmagee and Whitehead for many years. She has had a lifelong interest in drawing and painting in various media - after developing an allergy to oils, acrylics became a new favourite along with pastels, watercolours and various mixed media. Her favourite subjects are equestrian, portraiture and still life paintings. She spends time each year in the South of France where the way of life, people, landscape and history are a constant and fascinating source of inspiration. |
