Megan Lightell
Born in rural Coshocton County, Ohio, Megan Lightell grew up among quiet fields and farms, imagery that rests at the core of her work today. After earning a B.F.A. from the School of Visual Arts in New York in 2000, she began making paintings considering land and the connection that humans have with the environment that sustains them. Recent projects include an examination of the landscape in collaboration with farmers in specific regions of Ohio and Kentucky, and a collection of paintings focused on land protected by the Land Trust for Tennessee.
