"To view Short's work is comparable to viewing a 17th century painting at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. Short is an Old World Master living in contemporary times. She is a painter of chiaroscuro with her canvas possessing almost imperceptible gradations of light and dark. Short's work is inspired both by objects from her studio and world treasures collected from her travels, which extends her still-life genre in a sensitive and compelling manner."

"Margret Short is a painter of light. Her style, though deeply rooted in the traditions of the Renaissance, has a fresh and gestural quality that transcends time and space.
Prelude - the 1998 Salmagundi Club Award winner at New York's presitgious Salmagundi Club Exhibition, boldly transports the viewer into the world of the painting, while its freshness breathes "life" into its subject. It should truly be considered a masterwork."

"Margret Short's still lifes radiate light with the wonderful color and drama of an American artist so skilled in the European tradition..."
