Peggy Cadbury
I was born in Pennsylvania, but grew up in Connecticut. Summers were spent on an island off the coast of Maine. I studied in England, and continued my education at the University of Pennsylvania and the Maryland Institute College of Art.
After three years living and working in southeast Asia, I returned to the US and went back to college, to obtain a bachelor’s degree in nursing, and settled in San Francisco. I have been practicing nursing here since 1979, and have recently retired. I took up watercolor painting in the 1990’s, and have taken workshops with Gerald Brommer, Jan Kunz, Skip Lawrence, Christopher Schink, David Taylor, Katherine Chang Liu, Mel Stabin, Michael Reardon, and others. I recently began working with pastels.
I have shown my work in local group shows, and had a one-person show in Connecticut and New Hampshire in 2005. My paintings are in private collections across the country.
