Hi, I'm Melissa Teng & welcome to my developing art portfolio.

This site is currently under construction. Thanks for your patience as I sift through and update my work.
In the meantime, the links on the right are some examples of old pieces, dating back to high school.

I have been drawing for over 16 years and from the start, people have been my favorite subject matter.
I'm trained traditionally in drawing, but my interests have bled into painting, photography, sculpture, and digital painting--among others.
I like traveling, the global energy and environmental culture, and the intersection of powerhouse startups and technology.
Currently I live in Houston, TX, but my heartland is Boston, MA.

I'm working towards a B.A. in Mathematical Economic Analysis from Rice University and have been working as an illustrator since Jan. 2011.

For commissions, business inquiries, or jokes, you can email me at melissateng@rice.edu.
