Melody uses traditional and alternative photographic processes to create fine art prints. Using B&W and infrared film, she develops black and white prints in a traditional wet darkroom. She also uses non-camera photographic processes to create ethereal images from botanical material and negatives.
Melody is a graduate of the University of Houston and began her long-term association with Museum of Fine Arts-Houston Glassell School of Art in 2007. Melody has a studio at Silver Street Studios at Sawyer Yards and opens her studio to the public every second and third Saturday of the month.
