This biography from the Archives of AskART:
|  A printmaker, painter, and commercial artist, Marion Huse created work
that ranged from realism to abstraction and included portraits, figure
subjects, landscapes, and floral still lifes. She traveled widely
throughout New England, New York, Quebec, Europe, and the Western
United States. She was also an innovative serigrapher, and her
serigraphs and monographs were exhibited widely including a major
exhibition at the Brockton Art Museum (now Fuller Craft Museum) in
Massachusetts in 1985. The Museum owns a large collection of work
by the artist.
Huse was born in Lynn, Massachusetts, and studied
in Boston from 1915 to 1919 at the New School of Design, and from 1919
to 1921 at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh. She also studied
plein-air painting during the 1920s in Provincetown with Charles
Hawthorne at the Cape Cod School of Art.
In 1925, she founded
the Springfield, Massachusetts School of Art, where she taught and was
administrator until 1940. She was a WPA artist during the
Depression years, and had a summer studio in Pownal, Vermont, where she
eventually settled
permanently.
