About The Artist
Nature's colors have inspired Meadow from an early age. It was her love of nature and the hope of capturing the beauty around her that originally attracted Meadow to art. The artistic efforts of a young girl revealed an intensity and vibrancy that remain in her work today. Her first years of art education proved a frustrating experience due to a lack of formal training. Meadow then sought out Jeff Watts at Watts Atelier of the Arts. It was here that she began her study in earnest, and was exposed to the paintings of artists such as Nicolai Fechin, Anders Zorn, Cecilia Beaux, and Dean Cornwell.
Meadow is an artist member of both the California Art Club and Oil Painters of America
