Collection: Lorna Tagle Margate

Lorna Tagle Margate is arguably one of the most versatile artists of this generation, elevating whimsical art to new heights. Her talent has drawn comparisons to Artemisia Gentileschi, the renowned Italian Baroque painter. Gentileschi, known for her early professional work and Caravaggio-inspired style, is celebrated as one of the most accomplished artists of the seventeenth century. Despite the limited opportunities for women in the arts at the time, Artemisia was the first woman to join the Accademia di Arte del Disegno, and her paintings often depicted women from myths, allegories, and the Bible as both victims and warriors.

In contrast, El Tagle Margate has distinguished herself not only as an accomplished portrait artist but also as a master of whimsical art, making her highly sought after in this genre. Her heavily textured works captivate viewers, compelling them to take a second look and leaving them genuinely fascinated. With numerous exhibitions to her credit, Margate's career continues to soar.
