I find it hard to call my studio a “studio” because for over 20 years I have had a home office in the exact same space. Here I co-founded and ran two businesses (Originality, Inc. and Persona Designs, Inc.) with my good friend Pam Grimes. In addition, I helped other companies with their marketing and social media projects. Now this same space that was once filled with ribbons, products and conceptual designs has transitioned into an art studio. It houses paints, art supplies and is adorned with my paintings all over the walls that I am constantly switching them out. Did I mention that I am a Texas girl? In the pic you might notice the deer head and my little helper Buddy that keeps me company while I’m creating. Be sure to check out my IG @melindatomaselloart feed because I love posting behind the scenes pics taken in the “Studio.”
I am back in my studio taking a deep dive into various painting projects. Since my last blog entry in October of 2021, lots of life altering stuff has taken place. Follow my art journey to find out more.
