About Melanie Albertson
Hello and thank you for taking the time to get to know about me. My name is Melanie Albertson and I am a visual arts teacher with experience in both digital and fine arts. I have received two degrees from Bowling Green State University: a BFA in Art Education in 2014 and an MEd with a focus on fine arts education in 2021. I was also fortunate enough to study abroad in Florence, Italy where I continued my studies in fine arts along with a focus in Italian Art History.
Since finishing my undergraduate degree in 2014, I have been working in the Ohio education system as a visual arts teacher for ages PreK-12th grade as well as post-secondary courses in illustration and entertainment design. My knowledge and creative skill sets in the arts include both traditional and digital concepts and mediums. I am passionate about color design and theory, human figure drawing and anatomy, and all aspects of the animation process (including character design, film language and cinematography, and storyboarding).
When I am not teaching, I can be found creating my own personal illustrations (some examples below) using many different mediums including digital, paint, and markers. I love to travel and learn about new cultures which I then bring to my classroom lessons. I am an avid animal lover and have my SCUBA divers license.
