The Overson kids

This was one of my first commissions as an artist. These are the children of one of my dad's co-workers. He noticed some artwork that my dad had hung in his office and asked me to re-create an old photo of his children.

HI!  Welcome to my blog!  My name is Melissa, but Mel is easier for people to remember.  :)  I am a 23 yr old artist from Southern California.  I have been involved in art my entire life and I enjoy painting all kinds of things from portraits to landscapes.  I have just recently started to sell my art and I am super excited to show everyone what I can do.... Once I have this blogging thing figured out. :D
