“Leaving a Legacy - In a world filled with so much noise and strife, art, and the creating of art, is how I relax. It’s how I rest my heart and mind. It is my therapy. All genres of art have that ability. Music is one of them. It enables me to rest my heart and get lost in my work (my art). Some songs on my playlist are so beautiful, I listen to them every day as I paint.

I want my paintings to have this same effect on the viewer. When someone buys a painting, they hang it in their home and have the pleasure of looking at it every day. Now that’s a worthy legacy!” Brenda Morgan

Bio and Galleries with Brenda Morgan

Brenda Morgan works from her studio in Dardanelle, Arkansas. Growing up in Oklahoma City, her art education consisted of high school art and sculpture classes. There, as a member of the Art Honor Society, her love of oil painting began.

Brenda has always gravitated toward the western genre and artists such as James Bama and Carl Brenders inspired her to paint realism. Having a love of equine subjects, adding cowboys, cowgirls and Indigenous Americans seemed a natural progression.

Brenda has had several solo shows and have attended art workshops taught by prominent artists. As a member of several revered art societies, her work has been juried into countless fine art shows across the country, garnered many awards and she was honored to judge a nationally acclaimed small works show.
