An artist since childhood, Meredith Mercer-Akre is a creator of small worlds of color, texture, and context. Across the plastic and graphic arts, she maintains an approach that is, by turns, pure, contemplative, rough, sharp, light, dark, but always unabashedly optimistic. An eighth generation Fredericktonian, she has dedicated herself to the local history and service of the area as tour guide, storyteller, volunteer, teacher, and as ambassador for the cultural life and the philanthropic goals of her city. She splits her time between studios in Frederick and St. Michaels, Maryland.
