Hello! I’m Melissa.

In French, “Crayonne” evokes the act of sketching, a term that defines my practice. Based in Portugal, I am a visual artist and designer with a degree in Fashion and Textile Design from Écoles Condé Lyon (2017).

My work is rooted in the immediacy of observational drawing. Bridging spontaneous studio research with commissioned design projects, I use fluid and expressive lines to capture human presence, atmosphere, and the essence of a fleeting moment.
