My name is Morgan Echols
I was born and raised in Huntsville, Alabama. I have a degree in psychology from the University of Alabama and I worked in the field for several years while exploring my hobby of painting. As my walls filled with paintings, people started buying my work.
I never expected people to fall in love with my art the same way I do, but they did. As I’ve grown my audience, I’ve been allowed the opportunity to pursue my art full time— a dream I never realized could come true.
I have no formal art training, so everything I do is self taught through trial and error. I strive to create work that reflects balance and symmetry in both design and color. And part of my process has been sharing what I have learned through social media, to inspire and aid in the pursuits of other artists.
I paint in the style of “hard-edge” painting, and much of my work can be categorized as Op-Art, that which plays tricks in the mind through illusions. I use heavy body acrylic paints on canvas. While I have explored many mediums in my life, this is the one that allows me to create the art that inspires me most.
I would not be where I am today in my career without the support of those who follow my journey and believe in what I do. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page and view my work.
