She continued working at Mr. Adam's for five years while developing an understanding for the many different aspects of tattooing.  

Megan Jean's Education

In her formative years, Megan Jean's compulsory drive to develop as a fine artist lead her to attend Interlochen, the distinguished Summer Art Academy where she had the privilege of studying Life Drawing and Anatomy under Julie Saecker Schneider.  Megan Jean's portfolio awarded her merit scholarships to Rhode Island School of Design, Carnegie Mellon, and Syracuse University, and it was there, in upstate New York, where Megan Jean completed her Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Design.  During her time at Syracuse, Megan Jean studied under the designer Don Carr, and discovered invaluable philosophies of design that she applies to her own artistry, as well as painting, with one of America's greatest Living Figure artists, Jerome Witkin.

And a word about her paintings:

Relating to ourselves, as we are, along with the world as it occurs to us, is what beyond all else, captivates Megan Jean's focus.  She is uninterested with the singular "Truth" yet captivated by our plethora of constructed "truths".  Her paintings convey new perspectives, unseen options and identities while adding in overtones of the sarcastic, wise, comedic, and loving.

Utilizing thin coats of transparent oil veneers, Megan Jean composes her paintings layer by layer, which helps to achieve a rich surface with deep colors.  Her compositions encourage the eye on its journey over the canvas and onward into your own experience of life.
