Rise To Inspire

On this episode we bring on Margaret Chiaro, Margaret Alexis Chiaro was born in York, Pennsylvania. She attained a cum laude BFA from the University of Arizona and received her MFA from the New York Academy of Art.   She currently resides in Oceanside, CA and is a working artist and art instructor.   Margaret uses figurative painting to invite the viewer to enter a unique world or moment.  Spending hundreds of hours on a single piece, painting everything by hand in traditional techniques, she obsessively renders her subjects, caught in moments when they are open and expressive.  Through her chosen genre, Magical Realism, she fuses reality with imagination to create a visceral new “world” for the subject to dwell in and the viewer to observe. She shares her story, insights into art, creativity, productive feedback, handling criticism, creative tips and more!
