Melanie was born on August 7, 1951, in Mobile, Alabama. Shortly after birth, she moved to Lima, Peru, and later to Quito, Ecuador. In her early years, she spent time excavating pre-Columbian sites with her mother. This exposure, along with the vivid colors of the Andes and the exotic animals of the region, inspired her style. For Melanie, this visual stimulation was especially profound as she was born hearing-impaired.
Melanie has lived in Key West, Florida on and off since the 1960's. Her work has been exhibited in London and California and can be seen in Galleries in Key West.
