About
Hi, Mel here, I am a graphic artist that specializes in western style designs for upholstery and decor.
My passion and inspiration for the western style was sparked by my love and showing of paint horses.
You will find me on weekends showing my paint bred gelding "Without A Doubt" aka SID.
My inspiration for providing custom images for western upholsterers was sparked after I joined a membership run by Sierra at The Rusted Roan to learn how to upholster furniture. I had been following Sierra for some time and was in awe at her talent and creative flare. The membership group has been so much fun, Sierra is exceptional at teaching in a way that suits beginners through to advanced upholsterers. Sierra and the group members are so friendly and supportive. As I started to learn and begin to upholster my own pieces I also started playing around with designs, initially so I could get them printed for my own projects.
This sparked something inside of me that I just couldn't ignore, I loved it. Hence Roamin The West was born.
