ARTIST STATEMENT
Art is that moment of balanced meditation. Art is vital and is accessible to
everyone. Without creation, there is no life or breath. Although Ms. Meikle is
trained in painting, other art genres include sculpture, poetry, printmaking,
photography, and dance. Her work styles are predominantly abstract,
contemporary, or highly conceptual expressive pieces. Ms. Meikle has used the
brush, pen, or spatula as a cathartic release. Creating gave her voice purpose
and meaning. Ms. Meikle intends to spread this knowledge of self-worth.
