Hey, I'm Merel!
I'm an artist and love to color life with my paintings and hand painted vases.
I update my shop with original art every few months. View my shop!
I also love to help other creatives to make their own colorful artworks, because I think you can cheer yourself and others up with it. Check out my workshops!
