Mark Merrills show opens at the Visual Arts Center this week. As an artist, Mr. Merrill uses
Mark Merrill I remember that name
oh yes!
he is the guy that ran the unsuccessful smear campaign against Brian Partee in the last City Commission race. You remember the political action group Citizens to Protect Marshall Water. You might want to check out Commissioner Partees website
to refresh your memory.(click here)
Mark is a companionate individual and it is reflected in his work. He has worked tirelessly to protect Marshalls water even though he lives in Ft. Worth.
Mark does not live in Marshall although he sometime uses a Marshall address he does have friends here and has received funding from them to support his work(see Commissioner Partees web site).
Since Mark last received press coverage in Marshall, he has changed media. He now works with paint on canvas instead of bull
. on paper. The world is truly becoming a better place.
After reading this and reviewing the supporting documentation, I am sure some of you will want to drop by the opening and let Mark know what you think of his work.
