Love and Loss - New Works by Megan Bell

In May of 2022 I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer. Needless to say, this summer has been a trying one dealing with this loss while also doing my best to be the responsible daughter (fake it ‘til you make it!) helping to wrap up her affairs. Painting was more than I could manage for the first couple of months but thankfully has once again been my saving grace.

Please join me September 24th for a show of new works inspired by love and loss at the Megan Bell Studio September 24th.
