Illusions of Man No. 1 Painting

​ Born in a Medium Sized Pennsylvanian Town.  ​ For the last 24 years, Mellon has spent the time developing his craft in the arts - as many mediums and techniques of visual arts as well as explorations in sound design / art and with a very amateur and primitive attempts at animation and video editing. Mellon, as well has spent this period of time and space with the attempts at  reaching inward and outward toward the furthest  depths of inner consciousness and an attempt to understand the significance of the reality of the time span of our collective human history and to where it is going, along with a. better understanding of the mystics and ancient sciences.  ​ His works are of consciousness and observation , not just of  the world around, but the the worlds unseen and the entirety of our collective history. Subjects and themes found in his portfolios are broad and open themselves to many interpretations - allowing the viewer or collector to find their own unique bond to the imagery.  As Mellon learned early on, it is the viewer's  ( observer's ) understanding  of artwork that gives Art all it's meaning.  ​ In 2011 Mellon made the leap to focus on The Studio Full Time. Slowly , with aggressive marketing, perseverance, a lot of sacrifice - and, ultimately,  patience,   he has  grown a rooted online presence and has seen his Original Art Works and Prints collected by Private and Corporate Collectors around the world.  ​ After living abroad from 2015 - 2019, Mellon returned to The Southwest of  North America where he lives and  works out of his home Studio. ​ Mellon's works are in Private, Corporate and Government Collections across the globe. His work has also been Commissioned and Published as Album Covers , Fictional and Biographical Book Jackets , and also, on the cover of Science Journals.
