Megan Gabrielle Harris
Megan Gabrielle Harris is a multi-disciplinary artist from Sacramento, California.
Her work is mostly comprised of drawings, paintings and photography. M.G.H.’s desire to paint began at an early age, ignited by her father Thomas Harris whose paintings covered every wall in their home and continues to be heavily influenced by her father’s work and his Escapism style.
The inspiration for her work comes from fashion photography, surreal landscapes and natural forms, stemming from her experiences working as a model for over ten years. Women of color are the primary focus in her work. She uses vibrant and rich color palettes in an attempt to create a light and airy atmosphere for her subjects, while depicting these female figures as independent and powerful which is the perception she has of the women in her community.
M.G.H.’s goal as an artist is to create dreamy and sublime escapes, not only as a form of self-therapy but also to inspire anyone who views her artwork.
She received her B.A. in Art History from California State University, Sacramento in 2014 and is currently based in New York City.
