A full time artist since 1976, J. Merilee Adams received her training, as a third generation artist, from various members of her richly talented family. From her grandparents and mother, she learned the joy of art through countless hours spent in the "art room" experimenting with a myriad of raw materials and innovative techniques. As her journey continued toward her specialty of grand size art, she learned the precision of engineering, fabrication and installation from her father and brother. Merilee is gifted with an innate sense of design and balance, coupled with her ability to enhance the architecture, she creates a fluid orchestration of structure and art. Her commissioned work hangs in corporate buildings and private collections throughout the country.

More recently, Merilee has begun working with acrylics on textured canvas. This unusual technique adds dimension and visual interest which complements the already breathtaking images and rich colors that are a trademark of her work.
