About The Exhibit
This exhibition is deeply personal to me. It’s a retrospective, a look back at the many chapters of my creative journey so far. Over the years, I’ve explored a lot of different mediums, and this show brings them all together: jewelry, oil painting, acrylics, upcycled fashion accessories from my Unique Custom Threads label, and more.
Every piece comes from a different time, a different project or collection, but they’re all connected by the same energy: Color, joy, and a love of self-expression.
A Creative Expedition isn’t about following a straight line. It’s about embracing the twists, the curiosity, and the freedom that comes with creating from the heart. Whether it’s wearable art, something for the wall, or something completely in between, each piece is a reflection of the way I see and feel the world.
Opening night is especially meaningful for me, not just because I get to share this body of work, but because I also had the honor of judging Full Circle Arts’ annual Open Art Competition this year. I can’t wait to celebrate all the incredible artists who submitted their work.
If you’re in or around the Hickory area, I would love for you to stop by. Let’s connect, celebrate, and enjoy an evening filled with creativity and community.
Thank you so much for supporting my work. It means the world to me. I can’t wait to see you there!
With love and color,
Melissa
