Meikle has been an artist from Childhood, sketching the horses she loved and took care of in order to ride. True to her art, in college she earned a BA in painting and printmaking at the University of Colorado and studied watercolor at Cambridge University in England. Returning to the states, Meikle learned the gallery business in Denver, then worked in galleries in Chicago and New York City even as she continued to practice her craft. Her dream was always to make her living as an artist, and in 1990 she returned to New Mexico, her home state, to pursue her dream.

Her art may project peace and harmony exemplified as a colorful burro, or explode in the riot of energy of galloping horses. Enveloping skies of yellow, pink and white may hover over a majestic dark blue mountain that smolders with mystery, or stalks of prayerful flowers may reach for distant stars in an attitude of happy reverence. The views out her door may be of New Mexico, but her work speaks of a larger vision.
