Haidee Soule Merritt

Button Factory Studios Portsmouth, NH

I’m a self-taught mixed-media artist, working primarily with pen + ink, watercolor and oil. I love to experiment with mediums and techniques to find art and life in unexpected found objects. I like the intricacies of insects but also bold, borderless color. Art can be inconsistent. I’m comfortable with that.

After attending Franklin and Marshall College I changed Coasts and received a BA from the University of Washington in Seattle. I now live in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and work from my studio at The Button Factory, 855 Islington Street.
