LEGAL CONSULTANT
Born in the capital city of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and raised by the Hudson River on Riverside Drive in NYC, Anamelissa Carrion has the pure essence of a true artistic New Yorker.
Learning English one year after arriving to the states, Anamelissa was very clear to her teachers about her interest and demanded special attention be given to her artistic skills. It all started with bulletin boards in elementary school and permission to paint the hallway walls, which is the reason why she loves to work on large canvases.
At the Children's Art carnival, she picked up her first oils and went on to study painting at the High School of Art and Design. Here in advanced placement classes, she was given the opportunity to do what truly fascinated her; prepare for an art show. She was thrilled by the rush of creating a fascinating series of artwork to expose to the world.
AnaMelissa Carrion has exhibited in many locations and galleries throughout New York City including Rush Arts Gallery, Essie Green, galleries for The Alliance of Dominican Artist, and Chase bank. Her most recent exposure was in the famous Webster Hall venue where she participates in the Quarterly Arts Soiree better known as "the QAS".
AnaMelissa's art work is captivating due to the original manner in which she constructs each piece, adding a surprising 3D effect turning the canvas into life. Taking a short hiatus to pursue her second passion of law and politics, she left NY to earn her Bachelors of Science in Legal Studies with a minor in Philosophy and Government. She then returned to her City roots and earned her degree in Fine Art and won the CUNY Presidential Award for painting.
AnaMelissa is on the constant move looking for the next big project. She is currently working for individuals who are searching for the perfect painting for their home or a family portrait, and she designs interiors as she works with her Mother making handmade area rugs and is diligently working with DMA PRODUCTIONS NYC to create a wonderful artistic future for the company and the world at large.
