How did you get started and then develop your career?
Melanie Levitt: I started painting at a young and painted all my life but went to art school for graphic design. My painting career really took off during the covid epidemic when I started painting full time.

What is the most interesting thing that you have painted?
Melanie Levitt: The most interesting thing I have painted are sunsets on Monhegan Island in Maine. I am surrounded by seagulls, salt water, and the ever-changing colors in the sky. It is magical.
