Widely known by her artist name Margo in Margate, Margo is an Irish-born contemporary
artist based in Kent. She is celebrated for her bold, vibrant portraits. Her work is
characterised by bright, seaside-inspired colours, simple graphic lines, and expressive faces.
Her themes often revolve around femininity, sisterhood, empowerment, and optimism.
Her current work is deeply influenced by the light and culture of the Kent coastline and she
operates a shop and studio a few doors down from us.
