Being raised in Saskatchewan and the Yukon
Territories, Meghan was very influenced by native
culture. She was a contented child that often
watched life around her trying to understand the
natural order. That there had to be so much more
to her picture than that the black and white scenes
being played out in front of her. She wanted to
understand the panorama of life.
Meghan is introspective and open to beauty as well
as the complexity and systems of nature. Her
journey has been filled with unique twists and turns
and a lot of bumps. Her husband became disabled
thirteen years ago when her youngest was six months old and her oldest was four. Art has been her peace, helping her receive foresight when she needed it and her inspiration. Her masks are about life journeys, emotions and dreams.
This mask is called "Spirits of Light",
a mask of eternal hope.
I have found myself inspired by the deep psychological
and sensitive areas in one's life. The life lessons we all
face in one time or another, as well as the need to
overcome and the drive to make ideas and dreams real
are also very symbolic to my art.
This mask is called "Empower",
a mask about creating one's own
personal power and dreams.
Think it.
Do it.
Be it!

Classes are theme based, most are revolved around
morals and values. What it takes to be the best person
we can grow into and what does it take to get to where
we are going. How do we imagine ourselves through
art.
