Visual balance is felt like gravity.
The eye reads a composition's weight the way the body reads gravity — off-center pulls, symmetry settles.
Our Story
People project themselves into abstract art.
Abstract pieces function like psychological mirrors — editorial without being intimidating, hand-picked without being cold, warm without being casual.
Built by an artist, for artists.
Oil and Pencil began with a simple frustration: the best independent art was either buried in marketplaces that felt like yard sales, or locked behind galleries that felt like museums. There was no warm middle.
Megghan Warren built that middle. Every artist is approved by hand. Every piece passes through the studio — inspected, repackaged, and signed — before it ships.
Meet the artistsTry it in your space.
Buying art online asks you to imagine. We refused to accept that. The Edit lets you frame a piece, place it in a room at true scale, and see one honest total — before you ever commit.
It is the moment every other premium marketplace skips. We made it the signature interaction of the brand.

Meet the founder
Megghan Warren
Born in South Jersey and now based in Florida, Megghan Warren is a self-taught artist whose work moves between oil, pencil, and the quiet space in between. She paints the way she remembers — from feeling first, reference second.
Oil and Pencil grew out of her own search for a home for original work: somewhere serious about the art and gentle with the people buying it. She hand-picks every artist on the roster, and signs every piece that leaves the studio.
A note from Megghan
Welcome to Oil & Pencil.
My name is Megghan Warren, and I always wanted as an artist and as a collector — a place where original work is presented with the seriousness it deserves, sold without friction, and shipped with real care.
We launch within the next seven days. The first Friday Drop, the full roster, and The Edit are all on their way. Thank you for being here at the very start.

People project themselves into art.
Abstract pieces often function like psychological mirrors — two people see the same canvas and feel entirely different things.
