About the Artist

Ross Mercer

An occasional artist before retiring after a career in physics, I started painting more seriously several years ago.  Whenever possible I tryto incorporate something of my previous interest in mathematics and physics into my art.  It may be in the name of the painting or the inclusion of equations or a more abstract visual connection to an important event.

My work is abstract and usually large in size.  Composition, color and contrast guide me through the process.

Ross Mercer's work has appeared in Studio Visit Magazine, Volume 40, 2018.
