Meg Frances

Meg is a landscape artist living in Queensland. She loves immersing herself in the vast and vibrant Australian landscape, having lived in central Queensland and now spending every opportunity she can to explore country towns and beaches across Australia with her family. Meg is drawn to capturing the vast expanse of land and sky by layering her paintings to create depth, from the horizon and cloudscapes to the details of grasses and wildflowers.

Meg has always been passionate about painting and has loved being creative from a young age. She studied Visual Art throughout high school and then pursued a career as a schoolteacher, before adopting a more long-term and mostly self-taught approach to her art.

Meg explores how aspects such as open space and the light of various times of the day brings peace and tranquillity in an otherwise busy and over-stimulating world. Meg paints with acrylic on canvas and layers colours, often painting thickly, to create dimension and texture to her pieces.
