ABOUT
Mel Deva is a Quebec-born abstract painter based in Los Angeles, CA. With a background in Arts and Visual Design, she merges structure with fluidity, creating organic, serene compositions through the layering of diluted acrylics on raw canvas. Her intuitive process embraces spontaneity and movement, resulting in soft, layered works that balance delicate restraint with dynamic energy.
Deeply rooted in the natural world and refined aesthetics, Mel’s paintings evoke a quiet yet powerful presence—inviting viewers into a meditative exploration of movement, texture, and emotion. Each piece reflects her fascination with the ever-evolving dance of creation and transformation, offering a moment of stillness amid fluidity.
