Who Is Mel Marshan?
I have always called Montana home and I don't think I could survive any where else. A long time ago when I was younger, I had a temporary stay in Wyoming while I attended college, but I don't think I could leave here again. I have had a love of art since I was a child and was blessed with some of the best art teachers in my life. I love to paint, and pointillism is a great form of therapy. For several years now, I have turned to more of a digital based art form and have taken on the role of graphic design. It is quite therapeutic in its own way.

As a Freelance Artist, my goal is to connect people or companies to visual images and content that conveys a message or creates an emotional response from their intended audience.

They say I need to niche, but my brain does not work that way and I always have some idea swimming around in there. That is why you can find me trying my best at it (don't think I succeeded) over at BadToadTees and MsMarshanDesign

On a more personal side, I am the one always on an adventure just like little Alice. A little mad like the Hatter and always seem to be at a tea party, (sometimes I will drink coffee). I seem to have the timing of the White Rabbit, the mischief of the Cheshire Cat and the height of Absolem (never even hit 5"). But when all is said and done I believe that my wonderland is found right here in Montana.

I sadly lost my little partner Buddy (dog) recently (2024), and the office just hasn't been the same since. I still freak out if I move my chair the wrong way expecting him to yelp because I ran his tail over. He was also my reminder to take breaks often, so I think I sit too much now, but I am trying to get better. He is a part of me that is greatly missed. We went just about everywhere together.
