Morgan was born and raised in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine and works as a professional artist and has been a part-time employee of Moss Galleries since May 2019. Morgan has really come to appreciate the unique beauty and essence that Maine lends to its artists and their works,  as she shares, “The spirit of Maine often comes through in the artworks we present here at Moss Galleries. There's a special feeling you get when you look at local art that you really don't see anywhere else. That makes the work here particularly meaningful and beautiful.” 

Morgan shares that her time at Moss Galleries has been an “absolute delight, a wonderful learning experience, and a great way to get to know the local artists and immerse myself in the Maine art scene.”

Morgan is an animal lover through and through! She grew up having horses, dogs, and various farm animals. Being from Maine she was constantly surrounded by the abundance of wildlife that resides here. Because of this, the main focus of her paintings over the years have been animals. Morgan paints a large variety of animals but specializes particularly in birds, equines & foxes. Her ultimate goal with her oil paintings is, “to make my subjects feel alive and give them a sense of movement and harmony with their background through a unique painting style called disrupted-realism.” Morgan also has an expressive darker side with a deep passion for Halloween and creates an abundance darker, more immaginative works. Morgan’s work is currently represented in multiple galleries, including Moss Galleries in Falmouth, ME, Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado and Equine Art Gallery in Red Hook, NY!
