About

Accomplished in plein air painting and studio practice, Melanie Kozol works with visual documentation, watercolors and memory to create interpretive paintings of the environment. She traverses the relationship between tangible physical characteristics and her emotional response to the environment. Kozol focuses on timeless environments: long stretches of land, sky, and water; trees and vegetation; and the sky as seen from her studio. Kozol relies on experience, intuition, and invention to push the landscape into new realms.
