I am Dusty Melling and I am a fine artist and illustrator in Medicine Hat, Alberta. Illustration is a great part of my day job and I do fine art commissions and projects in my spare time. Portraiture is the most common subject for me, I mostly work with realism and try to incorporate unique color and bold marks into my work.
When I started drawing at about the age of six, I was mostly inspired by Jim Davis' Garfield. I slowly went from animals to people and then portraiture became my focus. Currently I'm most inspired by the works of Pino and Morgan Penn who both create vibrant and lively works, I also have a deep admiration for the masters who so brilliantly capture the human figure and emotion.
