Miranda Easton

Miranda Easton is a Kansas-based surrealist painter whose work explores the bond between nature and humanity. Drawing on influences like Salvador Dalí, Frida Kahlo, and Georgia O'Keeffe, she uses recurring symbols trees, hearts, water, twins to examine the consequences of human choices. Self-taught and shaped by 20 years in photography, Easton's art grew from early resourcefulness: she began selling sketches at age 12. Her current series, "I Am," pairs the five stages of grief with the five elements, set in the Kansas Flint Hills.
