Night clouds Painting

Meg Aiken's current body of work includes figurative oil paintings which have been described as passionate and expressive. With each brush stroke - a shape, a value, a color - Aiken hopes to push herself to the edge and not only create a unique work of art but also speak to men and women of all ages who long to grow beyond - age , oppression , fear - and dare boldly. These works evolved from the desire to bring forth the faces of women and children in all cultures. Aiken has exhibited widely and her paintings are held in private collections in the United States. She is the recipient of multiple awards from various organizations including the Portrait Society of America, Principle Gallery and Women Painting Women. Aiken lives and works in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
