Melanie Douthit, artist from West Monroe, Louisiana, started painting in
1983 and fell in love with the process. One of her favorite mediums is watercolor. She finds
the variation of style and technique in watercolors both challenging and
surprising. Acrylic is another of her favorites. She also works with pen and ink, colored pencil and conte pastels.
Melanie's work has been displayed locally and in regional shows and art competitions which include Snyder Museum, Natchitoches Art Guild, Franklin Parish Catfish Festival, El Dorado Art Center, Ruston Peach Festival, Arkansas's Oil and Brine Museum, Shreveport's Barnwell Garden and Art Center, and Mitchell Museum in Tyler, Texas. She is a former member of the Ouachita River Art Gallery, Hoover Watercolor Society and Mississippi Watercolor Society.
She currently has work displayed in Beauregard Gallery in Baton Rouge, LA. Her works are included in private collections across the United States and in Canada, Puerto Rico, United Kingdom and Greece.
