March in Stetson Gallery

"Progression - Meghan Boehmer"

In March, the Stetson Gallery in the Unitarian-Universalist Church of Marblehead will feature a show called, "Progression," paintings and drawings by Meghan Boehmer. The show will include works in charcoal, pastels, colored pencils and paint, displaying the steady progression of Meghan's technique and subject matter during the past few years. This photo is a self portrait in oils.

Meghan's interest in art began as a series of art "kicks" as a child, gifts of art supplies and painting lessons given to her while her brother Daniel was directed toward music. She soon became fascinated by the act of creating. "All I can say is that it's me to do art. I can't not do it! There's a great contented feeling when I finish as if I'm getting something off my chest."

Meghan, 18, has taken classes in three-dimensional art and studied painting at the Acorn Gallery. She is presently a freshman at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia, majoring in production and fashion design.
