Well I gave the art shows a try and really have to say I'm not sure it is for me. Traveling then setting up and then selling is all very work intensive and a gamble too. I feel like my only successful show is the Celebration of Fine Art in Scottsdale AZ. I can work and sell and build clients, it proven and works. The two years I have done shows all summer I would do well at some and poorly at others. I'm not into doing all that work unless I am making bank and that just isn't the case. So I have put some work into a few galleries and am taking the year to relocate to the Phoenix AZ. In the meantime, I am investigating some other avenues to sell. I will do a few local shows early this summer in Utah and then am looking forward to getting commissions from the Colorado Galleries who are displaying pieces to take orders off of.

About Me
- Melissa Behr
- Melissa Behr’s constant strive is towards perfecting her craft and reinventing her paintings. She is profoundly fond of combining the idea of real and unreal. Melissa paints by free association and believes a good piece evolves naturally as accident combined with aesthetic intuition brings the unconscious to consciousness. She is fond of magical dreamlike elements, exploring and examining themes that preoccupy the subconscious mind; the passing of time, death, nature, (in a metaphysical rather than literal sense) sexuality, beauty, temptation, fear and world religions. Her current work can be seen at Celebration of Fine Art, Scottsdale, AZ.
