Marjorie Reed Art

Marjorie Reed was born in the USA in 1915. She was an American artist who developed a successful career by painting western scenes depicting stagecoaches, horses, deserts, and mountains. Reed's father was an artist for the Mickey Mouse Beverage company, and she too went out to work for Disney, but preferred being able to paint her subjects. So she went on to study with the acclaimed Jack Wilkinson Smith at Chouinard Art School, who encouraged her to travel and paint what she saw, often traveling the stagecoach routes. Reed was a resident of both Southern California and Tombstone, Arizona, where she had a gallery. Today, her artworks are enjoyed by critics and collectors alike as they are on display in many prominent museums.
