Myra Albert Wiggins (1869 - 1956) was active/lived in Oregon. Myra Wiggins is known for Portrait, figure, landscape, still life.
Among the first artists of the northwest to receive recognition, Myra Wiggins was known as the "Dean of Northwest women painters." She also exhibited her photographs as well as her paintings, and in 1902 was admitted into the Photo-Secession, the group of photographers led by Alfred Steiglitz. She was very interested in Dutch genre scenes because their light and dark features were a good match for the tone of gelatin and silver prints. Her still life paintings often included Indian artifacts such as "American Indian Basket" and "Indian Baskets".
In 1907, she moved to Washington state from New York, and continued to live there until her death at age 86. She also received financial support from Eastman Kodak to travel overseas.
A painting that brought her early attention was a portrait of William Merritt Chase with his students at the Art Students League. Chase gave Wiggins strong encouragement when she was a student.
