Megan Myers is a fine artist and illustrator based in Bend, Oregon. She has her own art business, Megan Marie Myers Art, LLC. Her work is inspired by the outdoors and the connections that we have to both the outdoors and those around us.

Before starting her own art business, Megan attended Seattle University and majored in Visual Arts. After graduation, she worked in art administration for a decade, including working for the world-renowned glass artist, Dale Chuhuly.
