Margarita Carreras

Margarita Carreras, using her international background to inspire her visual sense of graphics, she created a fresh approach to decorative and functional home accessories. Her pieces bring you a unique sense of color and form through her process of reverse hand painting on glass.

Art Under Glass is a self-taught, hand painted technique using acrylics, gold leaf, and other mediums. Each piece conveys a bold powerful graphic statement combining texture, color and movement inducing a visual richness and depth. Original in style her work evokes a sensual interpretation of the theme she uses.

Margarita Carreras, was born in Havana, Cuba in 1958. One of her strongest creative influences was the world she grew up in. Through her father's association with Marcel Breuer, the family lived in architecturally enriched environments such as Paris and other major cities. Her youth was enhanced by a variety of cultural experiences exposing her to a world of sophistication in design. Living, working and studying in New York City most of her adult life became an integral part of her design development. Margarita studied graphics at Parsons School of Design.
