A Little More About Mely B...
A Colorado Native and Denver resident, I work out of the Studios on Blake, in the RiNo Art District. Drawing at an early age and falling in love with painting in college, I ended up graduating from the University of Colorado Boulder with a double major in both Studio Arts and Art History - with an emphasis in Drawing and Painting.
Abstract painting is my passion and currently, my work shows my exploration of paint pouring with acrylic paints.
