Mernie Buchanan Studio

At age 6 in the 60’s I took my first adult painting class, earned a BA in Art in Las Vegas in the 70’s and owned a full-time art biz in the San Francisco Bay Area from 1982-2017. My gallery was part of downtown Benicia for twenty-five years.
 
For 45 years I’ve designed and created wall art, murals, illustrations and portraits. I painted fifty stage sets in California theaters and won many awards.

As a six-year rep for Grumbacher, I taught adult painting classes, workshops and art retreats in the Sierras, and continued to teach during my seven years in Woodstock NY.

Exhibits include 150+ art festivals and galleries in California, Nevada, New York & Hawaii. My colorful, narrative paintings live in collections from Osaka to Oxford and all across the US.

After a great big move MernieStudio is up and running in Tucson, Arizona. All new landscapes! My main gallery is open 24/7 as an  Etsy shop.
