Medora is a contemporary abstract artist based in the Midwest. Message from Medora ... Art has always been my way of composting pain so that something new can thrive from it. Experiences, in all their diversity of intensity and meaning, are what I most portray with paint. Within each of us lies a complex set of emotions, traumas, backgrounds, and feelings. Musings from my everyday life can be seen abstractly conveyed on canvas. I started painting after an intense trauma and am passionate about helping others positively deal with struggles. My work consists mostly of acrylics, often combined with water, allowing each piece to take shape in a natural and free-spirited way— including the occasional use of pastels and pencils. I graduated in 2017 from Concordia College, MN with a Bachelor of Arts degree.
