Melissa Gannon (Studio #36)
My work is a journey of discovery, exploring colors by layering and arranging them into vibrant patterns. In my classes my goal is to instruct, motivate and inspire participants in a comfortable, creative environment. — Melissa Gannon
Melissa enjoys painting nature. Her inspiration comes from travel, hiking, and exploring her local area. Her home in the Pacific Northwest provides ready access to the coast, rivers, mountains and desert. She loves painting outdoors—portraying a perfect peaceful place in the woods, a bird surveying the world, or the vibrancy of a bunch of daisies. She finds that observations made in plein air painting enhance her studio work.
Melissa’s pieces are built using many layers. Each piece is a unique, amazing combination of colors, layers, and textures adding depth and richness to each design and surface, creating a satisfying visual feast for the eye.
Melissa will be hosted by Mitzi Kugler (Glass, Mixed Media).
