            Margery Babcock is an award-winning oil painter living on Cape Cod in Brewster, Massachusetts.  She has strong ancestral ties to Cape Cod beginning with the Reverend Thomas Crosby who settled in Eastham in 1655.  She is also a direct descendent of sea captains who sailed the waters off the Cape.

            Margery comes from a family of artists and was introduced to fine art during childhood.  She has pursued independent study and workshops over the years.  While living in Maryland, she studied pastel portrait painting with Elizabeth Byrd Mitchell, who later founded the Mitchell School of Fine Arts in Baltimore.  She also explored painting in oils in the style of the Schuler School and learned the Jacques Maroger technique in the tradition of the Old Masters.

            Her artistic ability is not limited to the single dimension of canvas.  During the past eight years, she has also crafted intricate woodcarvings of songbirds and waterfowl under the tutelage of June Knoll of Brewster.

            Margery is a juried member of the Cape Cod Art Association in Barnstable, MA, as well as a member of the Creative Arts Center in Chatham, MA.  She is represented by  the Eastwind Gallery, Orleans, MA.
