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 in Belmar, Block 7 Arts, Lakewood,Colorado
