finding beauty in the detail.
Welcome to the portfolio and life of Australian artist, researcher and teacher, Megan Spiers.

September Beach, South Australia.
I focus on the accurate depiction of subjects in their natural setting, from birds and trees to beautiful machinery at sea. The tools I use are brushes and paint, and a focused vision inspired by travel and research that captures the essence and the story.

The beauty and majesty of ships at sea and their specialist capabilities are portrayed on canvas in acrylic and oil.
From tiny and sublime finches to owls and wedge-tailed eagles, birds of all feathers appear in wild landscapes.
Portraits of people and pets, and other scenes inspired from travels, like the Moroccan spice merchant and camels roaming the sands of Kuwait.
