"Twilight is often interpreted as a liminal, even magical time during which spirits emerge in the transition between light and dark, advising extra caution against will-o'-the-wisps and fae."
"Many of Moegly's works possess a dreamy realism along the lines of photographer Todd Hido's Houses at Night or the illustrations of children's book author Chris Van Allsburg."
"Moegly is currently in the midst of the largest oil painting he's made thus far, experimenting with the relationship between scale and realism in a way that's challenging his artistic direction."
Twilight is often seen as a magical, liminal time in folklore, where spirits emerge and caution is advised. Artist Nicholas Moegly captures this essence in his works, depicting neighborhoods and quiet streets where curious creatures roam. His art reflects a dreamy realism reminiscent of Todd Hido and Chris Van Allsburg, with timeless scenes that could represent various U.S. locations. Moegly is currently creating his largest oil painting, exploring scale and realism, while preparing for future in-person exhibitions.
