Myra's father was the painter Abraham Myra, whom he trained under.[1] He primarily painted religious-themed works and altarpieces for church commissions. Myra worked on the Turku Cathedral and painted the altar for the Perniön church in 1703. He also painted portraits, most notably ones of Charles XI of Sweden and his wife Ulrika Eleonora.[1]
