    About Image

    Hi, my name’s Melanie Weissl! Welcome to my world!

    I am an artist based in Austria, born in 1995. All of my art is selftaught after many years of studying materials off- and online. I do most of my Illustrations digitally, but I do enjoy the occasional traditional style with watercolor and gouache, as well as pencil and ink artworks. I love to draw mostly fantastical characters and creatures showing the magic around them - that includes whimsical and dreamy landscapes as well.

    I started out like every artist before: the world of cartoons, computer games and anime! I was always fascinated by the fantastical worlds created in these mediums - no matter if it was the medieval and vast era of Skyrim, the quirky characters of Gravity Falls or Avatar the last Airbender, or simply amazing artists I found online. So many things around me inspire me on a daily basis and I wish to share this inspiration with the world around me!

    For as long as I can think I always loved expressing myself by drawing. The second I got any form of pencil nothing was safe from me - not even school books, notes and tables! Sadly, there is very little Art education in my home town, especially when it comes to Concept Art or Illustration. Without these opportunities I decided to study to become an elementary teacher, with a successfull Bachelor’s and Master’s degree. But recently I’ve noticed, that this wasn’t the path I wanted to persue. It was art, all along. So of course I had to take matters in my own hand and learn everything by myself, off the internet, workshops and art books!

    Recently, I’ve been working and studying hard to not only improve my art, but make my hobby into a profession. It’s my dream to one day work in the gaming industry as a concept Artist and/or Illustrator.You can help me make my dream come true by reaching out to me for a commission or anything Art related where you could see my work in.

    I look forward for you to see me grow on my artistic journey!
