Artist Bio
Maggie Bard is an American artist born in 1984 in the Northeast. She received her BFA in printmaking from Pratt Institute, and completed programs at Massachusetts College of Art and the School of the Art Institute Chicago. Working primarily in drawing, her ongoing series of work is comprised of amorphous forms often specific to the sub-tropics, carefully rendered in her signature fine line work. Her drawings are an array of contrasting textures and tones, without straying from a single long, black line. She currently lives and works in New Orleans, LA.
