elody Lea Lamb’s vibrant, detailed, lifelike miniature paintings of woodland animals and whimsical fairies (as well as a wide array of other creatures great and small) capture the vitality and essence of her subjects. Working mainly with a combination of rich-toned colored pencils, India ink, and acrylic, Melody’s love of art, animals, and nature is evident (see our cover art this issue below).

This talented artist grew up in Bakersfield, CA, went to college at Sonoma State University, and then continued art training at Maine College of Art. Melody is married, has two teenage kids, and currently lives and works from her home in North Egremont, MA. She has been painting collectible, diminutive, 3.5 inch x 2.5 inch works of art, known as ACEOs (Art Cards, Editions, and Originals) for more than eight years. 

In addition to the ACEOs, Melody has illustrated the children’s book Moonlight Memoirs, written by teen author Maggie Mei Lewis (which has won multiple awards and is now in its second printing) and is currently working on her second book, Thomas and Autumn, written by Jana Laiz. She also creates unique collectible art gifts including holiday card sets, pendants, ornaments, tiles, beaded art, magnets, and bookmarks. There is even a pocket gallery of Melody’s art for your iPhone – this app reached the #20 most popular spot out of 4,334 the very first week it launched! 

An avid runner, Melody regularly supports worthwhile animal charities by racing in the annual Memorial Day 10K Race, Run for the Critters, in Lenox, MA. The next race, on May 26, 2013, will benefit Old Dog Haven, www.olddoghaven.com. Become a sponsor at www.MelodyLeaLamb.com/critters.html.

“When I begin a painting of a particular animal (or landscape) I find myself becoming slowly and completely enamored with God’s perfect creation. With each stroke I am more in awe of this spirit and throw myself into capturing what inspires me. It’s a process  filled with heart and my hope is that I can convey at least some of this feeling.”  ~ Melody Lea Lamb

Is there any problem with the link which you have shared for sponsor? Because it displays an error like 'page not found'

So take care of skin and avoid to work in a light of sun . you also use a mask on the face if necessary to work in the light of sun and also use carrot in the food salad .
