About the Artist
"Nature inspires. It represents the truest essence of beauty. It has
the power to influence people’s moods in ways no other subject matter
does. To me it’s perfect. Growing up surrounded by the forest and mountains
of the Adirondacks in upstate New York solidly routed my reverence with nature.
It was very accessible to me and is where I spent most of my time and where
I still feel closest to God. Fast forward about 20 years and wrap that up with
my obsessions with; being different, vibrant color, movement, patterns, then
sprinkle it with faux painting techniques and you’ve got a Meg Harper
original. I believe vibrant colors influence our moods and make us feel good.
I thoroughly enjoy bringing fun, laughter, joy, peace and happiness to the
faces of people who see my paintings." – Meg Harper
Meg Harper has her BA in Painting from the State University of New York at
Cortland and has been painting for over 20 years.
