THE HISTORY OF MARISA
(SHORT VERSION)
My mom used to call me "a piece of art!".. Especially when I made a mess of things. So I guess it was not in a good way... But hey, life is all about embracing our artistic chaos, right?
I was born in Portugal, but my restless soul has allowed me to live in places like Saudi Arabia, Mozambique, and now, by some twist of fate, I've ended up in Ireland, and heading back to Portugal again!
I do love to travel!
Everything around us, every little influence, is a stroke of artistic genius. It's like the universe is one big gallery. As for me? Well, I'm a fearless experimenter of creative madness. From crafting and homemade goodies to architecture, design, illustration, and even photography. Oh, and I occasionally dip my foot into some amazing musical adventures.
