Inspired by the pure and concentrated essence of light, Megan created this mixed media abstract painting. Megan's contemporary artworks explore light's interplay with the world around us and both elicit the feeling of a real place while conjuring up deeper notions of space and time.
She incorporated metallic acrylic paint, texture media, gold leaf, and resin to create the feeling of a glistening and shimmering surface beneath a distant sparkling sky or space. It's up to the viewer to determine whether this is a real or imaginary place - whatever he or she perceives is right.
As you pass by this abstract painting, little bright sparkles catch your eye and the colors and values of metallics shift while you move and light reflects off them and through the resin. One of things Megan likes most about these paintings is the surprise of the gold leaf shimmers or the sparkle of the metallic flex; you don't expect them and then they twinkle out at you to catch your attention. The resin layer on top adds both depth and reflection to the piece. Much like water, the light from a window or the room around the piece bounce off it and create another layer of interest and depth.
The collector who chose this piece loved it from the moment she saw it; her sweetheart purchased it for a surprise for their beautiful contemporary beach home. Nothing makes Megan happier than seeing people love the beauty she sees and take it into their space to bring them the sense of peace or wonder, or happiness, whatever they felt when they saw it. That is the beauty of art.
