BIOGRAPHY

Megan Rae Borreson (b. 1995) is a self-taught painter based in the Midwest, United States. Borreson is an abstract artist, primarily using oil paint as a conduit to express her innermost feelings and inspirations. Her paintings often feature contrasting themes, such as, light versus dark. Borreson’s paintings reflect the beauty and heartbreak of human emotions.

In June of 2022, Borreson was an artist-in-residence at Château d’Orquevaux, which resides in Champagne-Ardenne, France. Château d’Orquevaux awarded her two grants, the Denis Diderot and the Emerging Artist, for her month-long residency.
