Hello, hallo & Herzlich Willkommen!
My name is Chiara and I'm a self-taught artist and upcycler living in Freiburg, Germany. My main focus is on upcycling second hand items and painting small items of furniture, but I have also been known to delve into other areas such as wall art and illustration. Creativity is my passion and my aim is to make a positive impact on the world and to inspire and encourage others. I hope you enjoy looking through my portfolio and if you have any questions or would like me to work on an upcoming project, please feel free to contact me. You can also take a look at my finished items on offer under the heading 'Shop' or follow me on instagram: secretlifeofanartist.freiburg
Liebe Grüße und bis Bald! Chiara Marie Ernst
