Welcome!
I'm Mel ... and I'm an artist.... I always loved to paint, mainly for myself. But thanks to encouraging friends I started to get some of my artwork out there.

Bought some colors and also a set of oil crayons the other day to experiment with. Haven't used them before, so this is the first attempt. Inspiration was a photo taken by a friend of mine. Hope you dont mind Lucia ^^

Moving
Four of my artworks have moved during the last months and I'm more than happy about it. Three found a new home in and around Dublin.
And one of my firsts and faveourites, the sleeping lion, made its way all the way up to Oulu, Finland :)

We construct a narrative for ourselves, and that's the thread that we follow from one day to the next. People who disintegrate as personalities are the ones who lose that thread.
You see, the interesting thing about books, as opposed, say, to films, is thats it's always just one persong encountering the book, it's not an audience, it's one to one.
