Megan Schaugaard: Specializing in realism, Megan’s work often features subjects that imply the paradox and interplay of pain and hope. She seeks to capture worn emotions with her choice of subjects, color palettes, and painting techniques while still infusing elements of hope that weaves a narrative of endurance from fractured histories. She is inspired by the stories of those who, amidst their struggles, find value and meaning throughout the journey–because every good story has a triumph over struggle.
