Alcohol Ink Painting

Vanessa Merry’s passion for art began at young age. As a child she attended painting classes with her mother which gave her a first-hand look at the creative process behind a work of art. The artists she met in these classes inspired her, and then and there she knew that wanted to be an artist too. To help fulfill this dream, Vanessa immersed herself in art and took as many art classes as she could. She also entered her first art competition at the age of 16 where she won Best in Show with a pen and ink drawing of Icarus falling.
