Melannie Cossey
| Biography
Born and raised in North Vancouver BC, Melanie has enjoyed a life-long
passion for the arts. Her earliest artistic influence has been
her father, whose flare for whim and fancy in the arts fed her
soul and helped form this life-embracing artist. Much of her early
artistic training was at the hand of her father and through local
community art programs. She won her first award in the arts, participated
in her first group show, and sold her first painting all before
the age of ten. With this solid foundation Melanie has spent her
most recent years returning to the art field, through intensive
self- learning and honing of her skills. Her work was quickly
recognized and she was welcomed on by several galleries and began
to sell her work regularly. Melanie has participated in many group
and solo shows across the lower mainland and has received several
awards. She has reached International status, as her work resides
in private collections in New Zealand, Great Britain, Italy and
across the US and Canada.
Melanie is a member of the Port Moody Arts Association and
the North Vancouver Arts Council.
