PEGGY WILLIAMS, Painter<br />
Peggy Williams Studio<br />
10557 Fox Forest Drive<br />
Sculptures have<br />
a profound,<br />
haunting hold<br />
on me; enticing<br />
me <strong>to</strong> narrate the<br />
paradox of changing<br />
surfaces on<br />
motionless yet resolute figures. Although I primarily work in watercolor, I will<br />
also have demonstrations in porcelain painting and sculpture.<br />
