About Us

 

Melissa Bixby is an artist specializing in batik, photography, and printmaking, deeply inspired by the ocean’s rhythms and marine life. 

Growing up in Alaska instilled in her a love for the wild and untamed, which continues to shape her work. After earning her Master of Fine Arts in Idaho, she settled in the Pacific Northwest, where she blends traditional techniques with modern storytelling to capture the beauty and mystery of the sea. From intricate batiks to immersive multimedia experiences, her goal is to spark curiosity and foster a deeper connection to the underwater world. When she's not creating, you’ll find her exploring tide pools, documenting octopus encounters, and seeking new ways to bring the ocean to life through art.
