An American artist born in Maine, Merriam’s work revels in a contemporary surrealist style that alludes to his love of the past. The homes and wardrobes that grace his canvases show a distinctly Victorian influence, and collectors throughout the world admire artist Daniel Merriam for his fantasy creatures and surrealist settings. His compositions enact stories only he can tell, as fairies ride dragons, mermaids wear dresses, and animals converge to spawn new and exceptional species. Still, no matter the setting, Merriam’s characters possess an aura of strength, delicacy, and dignity.
