Untitled, 2021 Large Brown, Black & White Abstract Painting by Meighan Morrison

Creator: MEIGHAN MORRISON
Offered by: Amy Zook

Description
Untitled, 2021 by Meighan Morrison is a large abstract acrylic and ink painting in shades of brown, black and white on linen. Bold shapes and gestural, calligraphic strokes create a powerful dynamic of meditative spaces not unlike Robert Motherwell and the Catalan artist, Antoni Tapies.

In Meighan's own words she explains: "I am interested in opposites, how they meet and determine each other-black/white, rough/smooth, pain/joy. I paint on linen or paper laid out onto the floor which adds a physicality and spontaneity, often foiling any plan. The large scale of my stretched paintings seek to amplify the relief found in simplification and basic nature of materials speak to the essential. I paint as a panacea for the exponential convolution that is modern life. Or as rebellion against it. On a good day I manage to do both."

The artist studied at Boston University before attending Parsons School of Design as an illustration major. After careers in textile design, interior design and children's books, she returned to painting continuing her studies at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. Meighan continues the artistic tradition of her great, great grandfather, Edmund Garrett, illustrator, painter and mentor of the American Impressionist painter, Childe Hassam.

Meighan Morrison's paintings are in private collections around the world including those of notable political figures and distinguished members of the design, entertainment and fashion industries.
