Melissa Kennedy

Melissa studied drawing and sculpture at the Florence Academy of Arts. After graduating from the program, she worked as a principle instructor at the Academy for three years.

In 2019, she returned to Canada to explore new opportunities outside the school setting.

“I really enjoy the process of learning new things, and I never know how the new knowledge will work its way into my art later on… another crucial aspect of this opportunity is getting to interact with such a diverse group of practicing artist, people who provide a wide range of ideas, methods, and life experiences.”
