I paint ordinary objects that are present in my home and part of my family life. Often, as I make dinner or play with my children, an object will beautifully catch the light, and I&#8217;ll snap a quick photo to paint later in my studio. Much of my work is inspired by those small moments with my family. I want my paintings to feel clean and simple\u2014the stillness and simplicity resonates with my quiet, introverted soul. I like to think it can bring the same feeling of calm to others. Many lead busy, loud, chaotic lives these days and I hope my paintings can be a little escape for them as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Links<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/megantruebloodart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/instagram.com\/megantruebloodart<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-50741\" src=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20-350x351.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20-350x351.jpg 350w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20-290x290.jpg 290w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20-768x771.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/hydrangeas_oil_20x20.jpg 788w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-50742\" src=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12-350x350.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12-350x350.jpg 350w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12-290x290.jpg 290w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2000\/02\/glass-of-water_oil_12x12.jpg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/three-peaches_oil_12x6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-50739\" src=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/three-peaches_oil_12x6-350x176.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/three-peaches_oil_12x6-350x176.jpg 350w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/three-peaches_oil_12x6-768x385.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/three-peaches_oil_12x6.jpg 831w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Megan Trueblood is an artist based in Orem, Utah, where she spends her days caring for her two children and capturing inspiration from quiet observations.
