About Me
- Melanie Farmer
- I have been an artist since I was 2, drawing pictures on the walls with crayons. (my cave art) Now I am painting my lovely home state of Maine, its colorful and peaceful lakes, mountains, farms, fields, people and homes. When I was 8 or 9, my grandmother encouraged my art by giving me a Jon Gnagy Learn to Draw kit for Christmas, for which I am ever grateful. With that and some technique classes and workshops, I have been largely self-taught. Now I am retired and still learning, as is true with most artists. There is always a new way to see things, new tools, new materials.
