BILLY'S ART GALLERY
William “Billy” Megargel lives with autism and uses the power of his artistic expression to communicate. Passionate and laser-focused, Billy turns the ordinary into the extraordinary with an arsenal of tools ranging from artist brushes, ball tip whisks, paint rollers, bamboo salad utensils, and bubble wrap. Billy rakes, flicks, and throws paint onto canvases, resulting in works that are striking combustions of color, texture, and physical virtuosity. His expressive, modern paintings command attention with their physical and emotional power.
Today Billy is an independent communicator, artist, and yogi. His works are on display in both corporate and private settings. Billy has permanent installations at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and Lurie Center for Autism in Lexington, MA.
