About
MelanieWelcome to MelanieBostic.com, a collection of original oil paintings by North Carolina artist Melanie Bostic. All paintings are original works of art created using high quality oil paints on cotton or linen canvases. Prints of every painting are available for purchase - just visit the "Store" link above.

Melanie began oil painting in 2003 when she enrolled in an oil painting class at her local community college.  She has always had an artistic side, creating simple drawings and colorings as a child.  Over the years, Melanie explored other types of art mainly through art classes in school.  With art class always being one of her favorite classes, it was only natural for her to continue to explore her creative side after college by enrolling in an oil painting class over six years ago.   

Today, Melanie enjoys painting still lifes, animal portraits, landscapes and any image that ignites her artistic passions.  Melanie occasionally takes art classes in her community to surround herself with other local artists and to share artistic ideas.

It's hard to believe that our little Walter is now five months old! He is getting so big and developing really well (at least in our opinion). At his four month check-up, he weighed 15 lbs 12 oz. I'm sure now he is over 16 lbs. He is a happy baby, very vocal and likes a lot of attention (what baby doesn't?).

Life is busy...um, life is crazy busy. Life is good...crazy good! To say that the husband and I are loving life is, well, to be perfectly honest, maybe not the whole truth. Our complete joy and happiness in having our precious little boy is overwhelming. We love being parents, we love looking and playing with Walter. We love how he is starting to smile and become engaged with his world around him.
