About the artist
Meliza Morris is a Pacific Northwest artist. She is most comfortable in the forests of her youth where she spent hours climbing trees and giant boulders left behind by ancient glaciers.
Morris works in steel, aluminum, bronze, and acrylic paint mediums. She is a sculptor, painter, and writer. Her work often explores how nature contrasts visually against industrial themes. There is an interest in brightness, magic, history, and simplicity.
Her art and life are informed by a belief that everything we encounter is a spiritual experience and that we take our own perspective for granted. Fascinated and empathic for the human experience. A proponent of bravery, discipline, resilience cultivation via strength training, artistic expression, and self improvement.
Interests lie in community development, compassion, sports, yoga and strength training, music, nature, animals, and the power of regeneration within every person or situation.
Morris has a vocational degree in Welding Technology Associate in Applied Science/Technology. She has been active in the field since 2004 and continues to grow professionally and artistically.
Morris offers art events and retreats where she helps others be creative.
