MEET MEGAN
From architecture to art.
Megan Cochran is an artist based in the sleepy coastal town of Kingscliff, on the Northern Rivers NSW, Australia. After practising in the field of architecture for over 10 years, Megan has returned to her true love of art.
Though she has been painting since childhood, her architectural profession has lead her to develop a unique abstract style expressing complex themes and a comprehensive understanding of space within the art and the space the art inhabits.
Cochran draws much inspiration from the pristine natural environment that this unique part of the world has to offer. Cochran’s style is fluid, textural and often portrays the dreamy and gentle rambling of nature through a neutral palette. Through the process of exploring the deep yet often overlooked themes of life, Cochran’s art evokes a sense of wonder, curiosity and reflection.
