Meghana is an abstract artist and children’s book author living just outside of Baltimore, Maryland.
Her visual work is rich with texture, often mimicked from patterns and colors found in nature. As a children's book creator, she feels a great responsibility in creating space for the stories that often go untold. Meghana seeks to bring out the voices and narratives that she was yearning for as a child—those characters that have rich histories and powerful stories to tell.
She draws from her unique experiences as a child of Indian immigrants when creating her stories and art. Between the layers there is a sense of universality that helps to create bridges between us all.
When Meghana is not in her studio, she is reading and creating alongside her daughters (4 years and 16 months), who are her greatest inspiration. She loves to get dirt beneath her fingernails and watch her garden transform every year. Nature and morning light almost always makes their way into her artwork.
Meghana graduated from Teachers College, Columbia University, has an MA in literacy, and has over a decade of teaching experience in the early childhood classroom.
