Nell Mercier is an oil painter with a focus on painting miniatures. Her jewelry line of miniature oil paintings include pendants, bracelets, buckles, and cuff links. Nell received her BFA in graphic design from Miami University in Ohio. Her paintings reflect her design background, as well as her study of classical and impressionist painting traditions. In each painting Nell strives to capture a strong graphic composition, enhanced by the rich colors that oil paints afford.
Each original miniature oil painting is painted on a wood panel and is protected with a soft matte varnish. Nell mounts all of her paintings in sterling silver settings and engraves her signature on the back of each piece.
