This is a third-person little article about the artist behind this site's awesome artwork.

Melissa J. Dentel. Born in Pittsburgh, PA on the 25th day of the year (we won't say which), this little blonde bundle of a girl was destined to become an artist. Always creative, she strived to challenge her art skills in many ways. With efforts abundant, she was met with failures and successes alike, and from each end of the spectrum she grew. Taking advice from others and observing life around her, she quickly caught on to what she would strive for in her life: animating. For longer than she could recall, she was always fascinated with animation on television, and felt that she was called to provide this entertainment to others. Following that dream, she attended The Art Institute of Pittsburgh and now focuses her attention on entertainment, more so in the areas of games and animated shorts.
