The joyous world of Merijn Hos
<< Back
The happiest place on Earth May 15, 2008 at 09:29
Merijn Hos' illustration of happiness kind of remind me of a girl i used to got to school with. Regardless of what she was doing, she would have a fantastic smile on her face. She could stuffing her face with a burger, playing softball or whatever but her inner happiness would be spewing out of every essence of her being...

At the time, for some reason I found it incredibly irritating but people seemed to be attracted to it. Happiness is quite magnetic, you can't help but want to be a part of it and that's how I feel about Merijn Hos' illustrations. Each of  them depicts a world that is so damn happy and fun, you just want to dive right in their and start shooting rainbow laserbeams out of your kneecaps... Good times.

Check out some samples to the right of this post and for more happy happy joy joy visit bfreeone.com
