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.

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.

YOu
“You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.”
