PEGGY HUFFSTUTLER

The letter “P” is meaningful to me.  It not only is the first letter in Peggy, it is also the first letter in painting and passion.  I’ve had a lifelong passion for painting.

 After earning a degree in fine arts from the University of Chattanooga, I immediately began my painting career.  With marriage, three children and moves to four southern cities, there have been a few interruptions. 

My Paintings began in oil, changed to watercolor in Nashville and settled with acrylics in Atlanta.  In Chattanooga I’ve been doing mixed media and I have a special love for collage.  Whether my paintings are traditional or abstract – it is the organization of space, color and pattern that fulfills my creative needs.

 For a long time, landscapes have been my specialty – using rich vibrant colors.  Recently my painting “Mountain High” was chosen by the “Keep Georgia Beautiful” commission as the cover for brochures and bookmarks used in their statewide campaign.
