Paul Mellender
Art Director
Paul Mellender (when referring to myself in third person) is an artist currently living in Boston. Enough third person. I work traditionally as a classical painter and occasional sculpter, likewise I work digitally, in CG, sometimes in medical R&D. I’ve done all kinds of work in video games, film, illustration, marketing, advertising and so on and so forth. I’m old so I’ve a lot. I teach on occasion, usually anatomy, drawing without models or reference, and creating digital humans. Recently, I have started teaching a course regarding the strange back streets of art from ancient lost techniques to new neurological discoveries.
