Merv Moriarty has been a practicing artist all his life, exhibiting in major galleries in Australian capital cities. Merv has an intense
interest in colour as a profound visual language and has written on this subject extensively. His work is represented in major
public collections, including The Art Gallery of NSW and the Queensland Art Gallery. He has worked in colleges, universities and
private art schools as a teacher in art, colour and design.
