SHIFT | PEOPLE | MARGARET KILGALLEN Today I started watching a DVD of the PBS show Art:21, and immediately fell in love with the work of Margaret Kilgallen. After the episode, I googled her, hoping to add another blog or shop to my list of faves, only to read that she tragically passed away in 2001 at the age of 33 from complications of breast cancer. Add to that bummer, she passed just days after giving birth to her first child. Life can be so cruel.

About:

I'm Heather. I live in Dallas. I love mid-century modern design and 100 year old houses. Right now, I'm into owls, and gray/yellow color combinations. Over the past 8 years, my career path has been primarily in advertising, but graphic design is my first love. Printmaking might run a close second. On this site I post things that inspire me visually, as well as designs I've done in my free time. I can be reached at aprila711 AT yahoo.com.
