Megan Darling, “Moody Blue – Riley Lodge YYC”, Oil on Canvas, 30″ x 40″, Unframed

My name is Megan Darling and I have been painting since I was given my first set of paints at 13.

With a minor degree in fine arts and the opportunity to train under three different gifted teachers, I developed as an artist and today am still continually growing and learning.

I am thankful for the opportunity to create and be creative.

I enjoy painting with mostly oils but  am inspired occasionally to use my acrylics or pastels. I use a variety of tools such as brushes, pallet knives, fingers and even cloth, and I paint in a variety of styles.  I choose not to restrict myself to one way or style but feel I can adapt to the subject matter and what works best for that painting.  Loose and lively, abstract and colorful, tight and tonal, thin paint application or thick…always a challenge and always fun!
