Art Now Presents: Sandra Meigs

Sandra Meigs

For over 35 years Sandra Meigs has created vivid, immersive, and enigmatic paintings that combine complex narratives with comic elements. Meigs is dedicated to the possibilities of enchantment that painting presents through colour and form. She believes that the very authenticity of one’s experience offers proof that what is imagined when looking at a painting is as real as anything else that one experiences in the world. Born in Baltimore in 1953, Meigs studied at the Rhode Island School of Design, the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (B.F.A. 1975) and Dalhousie University (M.A. 1980). Sandra Meigs has been a dedicated teacher at the University of Victoria for over 20 years. Represented by: Susan Hobbs Gallery
