Michael DeMeglio loves to work outdoors and will often set up plein air around Stillwater and the St. Croix Riverfront. The best way to paint is immersed in the experience of what you are creating. The style of his work embraces the mess that we are and the beauty of everyday life. His nudes especially celebrate the imperfections that can be uniquely appreciated when we are most vulnerable. His miniature works are not less time consuming but designed to draw the viewer into the moment that they capture, reminding us that small moments can have great meaning. He wants the viewer to not only see, but feel the zest of life when they encounter his artwork.
