Artist Bio: Megan Gray is a fine art landscape painter based in Monmouth County, NJ. Megan is a mostly self-taught artist, fumbling and growing creatively over the past 20-plus years while raising three wonderful children.
Megan's formal education consists of an art concentration at Red Bank Regional High School, portfolio development with the late Monmouth County artist, Evelyn Leavens, and a one-year stint as a Fine Art Major at Kean University (2002-2003). Megan realized early on that fine art was her predisposition, though a structured art degree did not suit her temperament. She knew that her creativity would find an outlet that fits just right with the ebb and flow of life itself.
Becoming a wife and mother helped Megan find the focus and motivation to pursue an artistic life first with portrait photography, then with landscape oil painting a few years later. Landscape painting had always been Megan's true passion, though raising three little ones delayed her full commitment to this medium.
Megan's artistic process started slowly with a lot of trial and error. Both the art and children have grown simultaneously, though the paintings remain small while the children do not!
