Art It

My name is Melissa and I am the owner of Art It. I love to draw, paint, doodle, design, and calligraphy, which is why I became an art teacher- a jack of all trades! I have an eye for design, and I am always looking for ways to create the creative. Said another way, I look for ways I can Art It!.

I grew up in a family in which we were encouraged to follow our passions. At an early age, I discovered that I absolutely loved art. What started with my love for coloring books and coloring contests turned into my career as an artist. Since then I have had my artwork featured in the Omaha Summer Arts Festival, and I have been recognized in other contests. In addition, I have taught art to all grades, painted murals in baby nurseries, calligraphied hundreds of wedding invitations, and created enough artwork to adorn the walls of not only my house, but my families' houses as well! This love for art led me to get my Bachelor's in Art Education and Masters in Curriculum and Instruction.

My vision for Art It is to share my passion of art with as many people as possible whether it be an art lesson a week, a mural on your wall, a painting birthday party for your child, an artistic night out with your friends and your favorite bottle of wine, or a decoration for your house.

Thank you for visiting my site! By giving me the opportunity to Art It, I hope you will find ways to create it and celebrate it, no matter what the occasion may be, for many years to come
