Texas Artist-The Abstract Art World of Mark Merrill a self taught Texas painter works in oil and acrylic

Welcome

I am a native Texas artist and a self taught painter. I create my
paintings using bold strokes and primary colors to develop
highly graphic themes of color and movement. Most of my
work starts as an idea and evolves into the final movement. I
rarely use pictures but rather paint from memory and feelings
of the moment. That’s the reason some of my friends claim I
need help after they viewed some of my artwork

I started painting late in life in my 40's as a new hobby and
time away from the TV. Having been in sales and marketing
all my professional life it was time for a change. I devoted my
younger years to playing sports and business so I was ready
for a new challenge. With no formal training and no lessons I
started painting.

I hope you enjoy my work.

All artwork is for sale and signed prints are available of all
work.

My first art show was the Fort Worth Main Street Arts Festival
April 15-18, 2004.
