I paint as often as I can whenever I am inspired

Paintings by Edward Merrell

I am educated as an engineer and view the world in physical terms of light and color rather than emotional. Thus my paintings are realistic.

I paint as often as I can whenever I am inspired. Inspiration is a challenge however. My other challenges involve the use of color and composition. I would like the use of color to be natural without excessive mental turmoil.

I like to copy old masters and think the Academy fosters the values that make this art timeless. I would hope the course supports this concept.

Hopefully people would vote for me because they likewise have an appreciation for art that endures.
