Artwork Description

Drifted Gift is an unique exploration of nature’s gifts, where the ocean and the land converge to create something timeless. I paint directly on driftwood found on the stunning shores of Bunurong Land*/ the Mornington Peninsula.

The texture of the wood, shaped by the elements, underscores that I find my primarily inspiration in nature. The creation of this work enclosed also a reminder: if you have your eyes open, nature will always provide. It's my intention that this artwork serves as a reflection of the profound beauty around us, an invitation to pause, notice, and cherish the simple, often unnoticed gifts the world offers.

Artist Bio

Merel MAY is a Dutch fine-artist specialised in working with oil paint. Inspiration flows from nature, and Merel MAY’s art aims to uncover the unseen — the glimmers of beauty that often go unnoticed or the thought-provoking elements that leave the viewer contemplating. Driven by creativity and curiosity, Merel’s life is a journey of discovery and exploring uncharted territories (e.g. new styles, and techniques). This journey led her to the breathtaking Bunurong Land*/the Mornington Peninsula, southeast of Melbourne, Australia, where she finds a rich source of inspiration.
