Peggy Turner Zablotny (Born March 15, 1948) is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Art. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Design. Peggy says that what’s most striking is nature's brilliance as it continues to excite and astonish her. Her botanical collage compositions celebrate the colors and patterns of nature. Through the medium of original prints she shares her vision with others. In 1971, she founded the Z Studio that provides development, planning, design and implementation of artwork and serves in a broad range of communication projects. Z Studio’s primary focus is graphic design and exhibit design. Peggy’s work includes design and production of traveling and permanent exhibit projects, master color plans for industrial facilities, signage design for corporate and hospitals facilities, color consultation, corporate and individual identity programs, design and print production of music CD packages, annual books, reports and book covers.
In 1994, she began developing and exploring her medium of pressed flower compositions. She used the IRIS Giclee fine art prints as her presentation method. In the process she presses selected clippings, and then she painstakingly creates botanical collages. Her original fine art prints enlarge the plant material compositions and also preserve the fleeting colors of the moisture and light sensitive organic materials. From 1996, Peggy has had many exhibitions at various galleries, most notably and often at the Dragonfly Gallery and on Martha's Vineyard in her home area at the Field Gallery. She has also shown in NYC at the Broome Street Gallery. Her images are powerful, startling, beautiful and delicate.
