ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm Melissa, a mom, wife, and art/preschool assistant living in the Pacific Northwest. My work is inspired by vintage items, the PNW, traditional folk art, tattoos, food, animals, and flowers.

I studied art education at Western Washington University where I earned my BA and teaching certificate. Through my art program I was able to explore several mediums and focused my art concentration in fiber arts. In my nine years teaching art to K-8 students I loved being able to use a variety of materials and styles of art, but was always happiest to share my love for printmaking and watercolor painting with my students.

Now as a mom I love creating art with my own son. Many of my designs are made with my boy by my side, both of us sketching and creating.

Thank you for visiting my shop. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. melissapothierart@gmail.com
