Margaret Zox Brown's work provides connection. Her paintings are of authentic feelings and intimate realities that she has experienced firsthand. Having lived through some difficult times, she found that her painting was what got her through. During those times, she chose to paint the beauty she was able to see despite her life struggles. Today she is always looking towards the positive, making work that highlights the beauty of everyday life. Her paintings are often large-scale, symbolic of the abundance of life. Being a lifelong New Yorker, Brown's color language and quality of form are influenced by the city's exceptional creative energy. And because she has created her art coming from a place of genuine appreciation for the everyday, through representational painting Brown makes it so anyone can identify with her art. 


Brown lives in New York City's West Village and works in her Garment District studio. She attended the Chapin School in New York City and Trinity College in Hartford, CT where she studied Psychology. For nearly three decades, she perfected her painting technique in weekly studio sessions at New York City’s iconic 92nd Street Y.  Brown's paintings are in private collections worldwide, as well as public spaces including the lobby of the commercial building 462/470 7th Avenue, NYC among others. The artist has been featured in notable interviews, both on television and in print with WNBC, White Hot Magazine, Art of the Times, Create Magazine and more. 

Brown is represented by Iustitia Fine Arts, an art gallery in the Tribeca area of Manhattan.
