Margaret D.H.Keane, born 1927 in Nashville, is an American artist, famous for her paintings of big eyed children.

Like other "mass market" artists she has mainly achieved commercial success through the enormous popularity of of her work sold as prints.
Tim Burton's 2014 biopic "Big Eyes" has recently rekindled interest in her work although detractors have unkindly described her work as kitsch.
Prints of Margaret Keane's paintings can still be acquired at quite modest prices but her originals are highly sought after and at auction have been known to fetch US$7,500 or more.
