Melodie Thompson Fine Art Painter : Landscape, Portrait, Still Life and Figure.
| |  |
 | | This series was inspired by my intrigue with the small things. A rock I discovered one morning on the beach, the way water moves over rocks in a stream, the shell fossils handed to me from a childs hand, and the countless hours I've spent watching what the surf, waiting for what treasures it might reveal. For me each one was like a gift, the color, pattern and texture each one unique and waiting to be discovered. |

| Growing up in the midwest on a farm gave me an appreciation for the simple beauty revealed in the landscape and people surrounding me. At a young age, I was drawn to expressing myself visually. I spent a lot of time outside immersed in the color and nature surrounding me. My training was in the classical/ academic style with an emphasis in Art History at Grace College in Indiana. I continue to enjoy learning new techniques and challenging myself in the company of other artists.
I worked for seven years as a muralist in both residential and commercial arenas. I enjoy teaching classes and donating my work to charities. My work has been involved in Juried and non Juried shows alike. I have a great group of creative friends that ignite my view of life. I'm involved with the Plein Aire group of Ohio, The Worthington Area Art league, and the Ohio Art league.
I work out of my studio in Worthington, Ohio where I live with my husband of 28 years and our two children.

Working on this painting today and I was struck with how our lives can change in an instant. We happen to be in a weather pattern of rain and overcast clouds that has been with us for a month. When the sun does break through for momentary periods it is overwhelmingly wonderful. | | Dancing in the Light

A single night of passage
My heart searches the darkness
Winds rage
She illuminates…
Her form quietly sweeps across the plains of my memory
In the corner of my dream she whispers…

On display at Guissepe's in Bexley, OH. | | Cloud triptych
Today ... I was finishing up an idea for a triptych. Do you ever wonder why our eyes like a grouping of three versus two or four? It is amazing sometimes when I think about the connections of how we are wired and what speaks to wholeness/beauty in the world of art and music. | | WW 2 / day 4 close up
