Meg Brown Payson is a painter whose work is expanded and extended by print media to investigate how perception is altered by transformations of material, scale and repetition.
Born, raised and now living in coastal Maine, her work is based in the experience of landscape as integral to a sense of self.

She earned her BFA from the College of Fine Art at Boston University followed by an MFA from Vermont College, and was an Associate Professor of Drawing and Foundation at the Maine College of Art until she left teaching in 2011.

Devoted to time outside, Payson has a large garden and has traveled widely throughout the wild places of the American Southwest and the North Woods of Maine and Quebec.
