Peggy Earle
Peggy Earle, 54, is a Brooklyn, New York native who lives in Norfolk, Virginia. A newspaper librarian, writer and book
review editor, she studied art in New York at City College and the School of Visual Arts. She has been an oil and watercolor
painter for decades, but her true love is assemblages, which she's been constructing for the past 10 years.
She has exhibited widely in the Hampton Roads area (southeastern Virginia), in invitational and juried shows, including
the prestigious Irene Leache Memorial juried show at Norfolk's world-class Chrysler Museum. She's participated in a
Virtual Tart show online and in 2001, she and Dale Copeland showed their assemblages together in an exhibit at the Kina
gallery in New Plymouth, New Zealand. Her work has been photographed for conceptual illustrations in her local newspaper,
The Virginian-Pilot (circulation 200,000), for a regular column in a national magazine called Modern Maturity (circ.
11 million), and for The Plain Dealer, a daily newspaper in Cleveland, Ohio
with a circulation of 365,000. |
