Welcome to MargaretMerry.com
I grew up in Falmouth where, after leaving Falmouth High School, I spent a year at Falmouth School of Art. Then followed three years at Hornsey College of Art in London where I obtained a Diploma in Art and Design. I then spent a post-graduate year at the West of England College of Art in Bristol where I gained an Art Teacher’s Diploma and a Certificate in Education of the University of Bristol. I lived and worked in Truro for over 30 years and became one of Cornwall’s most popular artists. My paintings have been exhibited in New York, Tokyo, Paris and London and have been bought by collectors from all over the world. I have published 4 books which became local bestsellers - “The Natural History of a Westcountry City”, “Margaret Merry’s Cornish Garden Sketchbook”, “Sea & Sail” and “Tidal Reaches”.
In 2002 I moved to Spain and now live on a farm near the pretty village of Guajar Alto in the mountains between Granada and the coast www.guajar.com. I now get my inspiration from the dramatic mountain scenery of Andalucia which I finds lends itself to the medium of pastel and the old towns and villages which I prefer to capture in watercolour.
The scenery around my home provides endless, beautiful subjects for landscape painting and I am prepared to offer instruction to small groups who would like to enjoy a painting holiday in the area. You can also read my accounts of village life at www.guajar.blogspot.com
My original paintings of Cornwall have all been sold but many are available as limited edition prints. See Cornish Prints. I have written and illustrated 3 children's books - The Wise Old Boar, The Lonely Digger and The Adventure of Princess The Pony - which are being published in the USA. The Lonely Digger is now available to purchase on line at www.strategicbookpublishing.com/TheLonelyDigger.html and The Wise Old Boar at www.strategicbookpublishing.com/TheWiseOldBoar.html . The books are inspired by the wildlife and landscapes around my home. Full page illustrations can be seen on this site and are available as prints.
I have also written my childhood memoirs recalling the post war years in London and then Falmouth in the 1950s. Chapters are posted on this site under the title www.margaretmerry.blogspot.com.
