Hi, I’m Merv, an artist based in the historic city of York. I’ve got a real love for Yorkshire and would be happy to show you around whenever I’m free. I’m naturally curious and a bit of an explorer. I’ve even developed a reputation for spontaneously popping up in a new country now and then. Thanks to the flexibility of my work, I’ve been lucky enough to travel widely and experience the incredible diversity our planet has to offer 🌍

I’d describe myself as both easygoing and charismatic, and I’m always up for a good chat if our paths happen to cross. I’m into art and design, history, nature walks, exploring cities, and wildlife. I also enjoy trying out new restaurants but I don’t drink.
