Greetings! Mark C. Merchant here,
I make pictures for many reasons, but mostly because it is my calling, my duty, my service. I started drawing as a child as all kids do, but like most visual artists I just never stopped. These attempts at making "art" are my best efforts to give back to the world from which I take. They are a reflection of me, you and all things. I agree, we are all unique and individual but connected nonetheless. These art pieces are me dreaming, struggling, failing, losing and occasionally winning. This art is my diary. These works are my song and dance. Among my many collectors is Kate Pierson of The B-52's. Enjoy!
