Melissa Meadows is an artistic powerhouse whose versatility spans from touch screen to canvas. Her talents include graphic design, illustration, fine art and creative direction.

With a BFA in Graphic Design from Virginia Tech and over 20 years of experience and Adobe software proficiency, she creates visually appealing designs across all mediums.
Her diverse client roster includes Boy Meets Girl, Discovery Education, MedStar Health and Loyola University to name a few.
She started her career in-house as a graphic artist at A & A Global Industries, showcasing her illustration skills on such notable American childhood favorites as Strawberry Shortcake and Dora the Explorer.

When she’s not painting, designing or drawing, Melissa fills her time with her other passion…her kids.
