Deep breath in, hold it, and breathe out!

If I had to explain how painting feels, it would be that. An escape, and a way of finding yourself, at the same time. It awakes your senses and calms your spirit, it reaches deep in and gently brushes over you at the same time, and if there is one thing I would love to pass on through my paintings, that would be it.

I hope you find the courage to find yourself - every day! I hope you get brave, on the days when it feels scary, daunting and overwhelming. Somehow, I hope my painting remind you to take a deep breath in, hold it, and breathe out!

I am Melissa Maguitte, an artist born and raised in Mauritius island and now living my best Dutch life.

Painting has always been an escape for me, especially on the days when my heart would be full. Full of love, full of life, of sadness, of hope - you name it. Throughout the years, I got to perfect my skills, until I reached this point, this exact moment where I felt, - ready, I’m ready to share it with you!

“I hope you find the courage to find yourself, every day, because finding yourself is a journey”
