Meirion Jones was born in Dyfed, and attended the Dyfed College of Art and the University of Wales. He went into the teaching profession for a decade until he decided to concentrate on his art full time in 2002. Much of Meirion’s work is very much inspired by Wales, both rural scenes and the beautiful West Wales coastline, as well as having a Latin American influence thrown into the mix. His preferred medium is acrylic on board.
