Megan Miller is a painter based in Stillwater, Minnesota, whose work is deeply rooted in the landscapes of the Midwest. Growing up in River Falls, Wisconsin, surrounded by open fields and rural scenery, she developed an early connection to place and nature that continues to shape her work.

Megan primarily paints en plein air in oils, working directly from life and observing the light, atmosphere, and character of the landscape. Her years of outdoor and studio practice have shaped a thoughtful approach to composition and observation. She has studied with Kim Casebeer, Kami Mendlik, Marc Hanson and Joe Paquet. In 2025, she received an Exceptional Merit Award in the Open Class at the Grand Marais Plein Air Event.

She holds a Bachelor of Fine Art with a concentration in Interior Design and a Bachelor of Science in Retail Management from UW–Stout. During a study-abroad experience in London, she discovered her love of painting outdoors, an experience that continues to shape her work today.

Megan has taught plein air painting at White Bear Center for the Arts and led a destination painting workshop at Madeline Island School of the Arts (MISA). Her teaching blends technical instruction with mindfulness, encouraging students to slow down, observe, and develop their own connection to the painting process. She also offers workshops, individual instruction, and commissioned paintings inspired by meaningful places.
