Merric Boyd

William Merric Boyd, his birth name, (24 June 1888 – 9 September 1959) was an Australian artist, active as a ceramicist, painter, and sculptor. It was as Merric Boyd that he was given the fine distinction of being the father of Studio pottery in Australia.
The Boyd family of many generations includes painters, sculptors, architects and other arts professionals, commencing with Boyd's father Arthur Merric Boyd. Boyd's brothers were Penleigh, a landscape artist, and Martin, a writer. His sister was painter Helen Read. Together with his wife, Doris, they raised noted Australian artists including painters Arthur and David, and sculptor Guy. Subsequent generations of the Boyd family are or were active in the arts.
==Background==
The second of five children of Arthur Merric Boyd (1862–1940) and Emma Minnie à Beckett (1858–1936) who were both established painters, Boyd was born on 24 June 1888 in the Melbourne suburb of St Kilda, in Victoria. Arthur Merric Boyd and family were supported financially by Merric's maternal grandmother Emma à Beckett. It was Emma's fortune, inherited from her father John Mills, an ex-convict who founded the Melbourne Brewery, that allowed their family to live comfortably. Boyd lived in Sandringham where he was educated at Haileybury College until he was eight. The family moved permanently to the family farm at Yarra Glen and Boyd attended Dookie Agricultural College with aspirations of turning his hand to farming; and then he considered entering the Church of England as a minister; later good model material for Martin Boyd's award-winning 1955 novel, ''A Difficult Young Man''.
