Melissa Mariano

Drawing
I create colorful, character-driven illustrations that move between classic illustration and mixed-media fine art. Colored pencil is at the heart of my practice, layered with acrylic, watercolor, pastel, and paint markers to build playful, expressive worlds. Through themes of joy, hope, love, and exploration, I aim to make work that feels warm, whimsical, and emotionally uplifting.
