    Bio

    Melissa Walker has been making art in one form or another for as long as she can remember. She can most often be found creating abstract mixed media collages or painting landscapes in watercolor or pastel. She has recently become interested in creating visual journals, altered books and ATC’s in addition to her painting.

    Melissa is also a National Board Certified art educator with over 18 years experience teaching elementary, middle, high school and adult students. She received a BS degree in Art Education from East Carolina University and a MA degree in Painting and Printmaking from the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks. Her students have won numerous awards and she has inspired many to pursue an art career of their own.

    Each one of these passions feeds the other. Melissa becomes a better teacher as she learns and grows as an artist. Teaching her students keeps her focused on the basics of art making and provides her with the opportunity to experiment and become comfortable with many different mediums. She hopes to continue learning and teaching all she can. These are the things that keep her full of enthusiasm and energy and let her express who she truly is.
