In addition to photography, Megan dabbles in other artistic mediums such as pencil and charcoal sketching, pastels, airbrush, watercolor and oil painting, and fiber arts. She has painted murals for York’’s Grocery and Baker Heritage Museum.
In the upcoming show at Short Term Art Gallery, Megan has created a series of photographic collages using black and white images, including landscapes and architecture found in Baker County, Oregon.
