Morgan is a Texas-born artist whose love for drawing began as soon as she could pick up a pencil. From an early age through her school years, she developed a fascination with the human face, captivated by how each feature tells a unique story. For Morgan, every face is not just a portrait but a canvas of history, emotion, and individuality, and her work seeks to capture not only a likeness but a piece of each subject’s personal narrative. Movies have always been an integral part of how Morgan’s family spent time together growing up. The characters from these films became a source of inspiration, sparking Morgan’s passion for drawing and capturing those vivid personalities. Over time, this interest expanded into a deeper connection with the unique features of real people, leading to a focus on portraiture. In her early twenties, Morgan made the move to Oregon, where she settled in the beautiful Willamette Valley. This change of scenery brought a new depth and perspective to her art, as the natural beauty and culture of the Pacific Northwest began to influence her creative process. Specializing in graphite pencil and colored pencil, Morgan creates deeply expressive, lifelike portraits that reveal the complexity and character of her subjects. Recently, she has expanded her artistic practice to include painting and watercolor, embracing a more fluid and spontaneous approach that contrasts with the meticulous detail that has long defined her work. Over the years, Morgan has been commissioned to create a wide range of works, from detailed portraits and photographs to large-scale painted murals. These varied commissions reflect her versatility and ability to adapt to different artistic challenges, each project providing a new opportunity to tell a unique story through art. Through her art, she explores new ways to tell stories-whether in the fine lines of a portrait, the sweeping strokes of watercolor, or the expansive scale of murals-celebrating the individuality of each person and capturing the essence of what makes them unique and unforgettable. "I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people” -Vincent Van Gogh
