MY STORY

Megan Daisy Milner is an artist based in Charlotte, NC, where she lives with her husband Glenn, our three kids, and one very lovable Golden Retriever. I've been painting for over 10 years and a full-time artist since 2021 — though the road here was anything but linear.

I was always the cautious one, the person who avoided anything unfamiliar or uncomfortable (I didn't even learn to ride a bike until 4th grade!). Even law school felt like the "safe" choice after undergrad. But at 27, back home in Charlotte with some time on my hands, I decided to try something I'd never had the courage to attempt: painting. I took a six-session class not even knowing what supplies to buy, and I was hooked. What started as secretly painting in our guest bedroom snowballed into paintings for friends and family — and eventually, a full-time career.

That leap into painting opened the door to saying yes to more: new friendships, new sports, a hand-painted textile line, and being more open and honest in my life and work. If my story encourages you to try something new, I hope you take the leap — you never know what it might lead to.
