Melissa Lundberg
Melissa worked as a copywriter and in advertising sales in Portland, Oregon.  During her early career days she was a member of Washington Poets Association and gave occasional readings. 

Shortly after she married she moved to Stockholm Sweden to help her husband with his business and children.  When the demands of the business and family lessened she saw an opportunity to persue a childhood dream of learning to paint and draw.  She took several art courses and was then encouraged by her husband to attend the Florence Academy of Art.  She studied two years in Italy and one year at Paul Engbretsons studio in Framingham, Mass., USA.

After coming home, she worked up a one woman show in a Stockholm Gallery which was a great success.  Melissa has been a member of Swedish Artists Association, she has taught through her local Community Activities and Culture Association. She continues to paint and sell from her own studio.  She will be giving summer workshops in the beautiful parks of Stockholm.
