McLean Fletcher
Deeply influenced by storytelling and memories, the subject matter of contemporary painter McLean Fletcher often focuses on the female characters of Shakspeare’s work. Legends, mythical figures and characters derived from her imagination are also common subjects explored within her work. “I want my paintings to evoke the way a memory feels; often visceral, romantic, or lonely.”
McLean is a self-trained visual artist. She works with both oil and acrylic paint and enjoys the complementary relationship of the media and the unlikely results the combination produces. She has also obtained a Master of Fine Arts in Classical Acting from George Washington University.
A large-scale triptych of her work is currently on display at the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, and her murals and illustrations are featured in numerous reputable publications. She currently resides in New York City, where she works as an artist, actor, and activist.
“As a feminist, I believe fiercely in meliorism; that humans aid the world’s betterment; and by encouraging the study of the female narrative, we aid our evolution.”
