Who is Mel Hearts?!

Mel Hearts, a published author, photographer, and creative polymath, hails from Seattle but was raised in New York and now resides in the North Carolina mountains with her husband, a pack of dogs, and a flock of birds.

 Mel has had a diverse career, including being a Certified Nurse's Aide, an interior painter, and a Tattoo artist. Although physically disabled, Mel has turned to digital art and has embraced all it has to offer.


 Mel turned to digital art while recovering from a spinal fusion surgery in 2017.  

She discovered that there were MANY tools available to combat the physical effects of Fibromyalgia and neuropathy. The more Mel learned, the more her passion for creating was reignited, and she has not slowed down since!

 Mel has several virtual galleries where lovers of her art can enjoy an immersive virtual experience of the different art forms that flow tirelessly from Mel’s vibrant imagination. 

As a lifetime learner, Mel’s current goal is to gain the skills needed to turn her art, and her books into something that anyone can step inside of and explore!
