Margeaux A. Huffines-Keener, is a Ceramic Artist living in Richmond, Virginia.  Ever since she was a small child, Margeaux, has loved stories and making art with her hands.  She has fond memories of listening to stories of adventure, magic, tragedy, love, morality, and mystery, before bedtime. Like the fables she loved to hear, her parents taught her to look beyond the exterior of a person to see the beauty within instead of the outside. She is known for willingness to accept others, work diligently, her eagerness to succeed and determination to never give up. As an adult, she fuses her own life story, beloved fairytale stories of her youth, and her skills in clay to make art work. She makes fantastical works that demonstrate both the light and dark sides of our humanity. They are meant to be an exploration of the blurring lines morality, reality, and of fiction in life.​
