Melissa Milton creates one-of-a-kind mixed media sculptures and paints with alcohol inks and acrylic paint on canvas.
Melissa begins each art piece by asking a question. Such as “How would robots interact with animals if all the humans were gone?”, “How can a Lizard on a wall be a metaphor for a person meeting a challenge?”, or “What if we could escape our everyday problems by just grabbing the string of a balloon and letting it float us away?” She then sketches a visual representation of that question, later creating it as a sculpture or painting. Melissa feels that as long as there are interesting questions to ask, there will be interesting artwork to make.
