DragonMelde is an illustrator known for hand‑drawn digital work inspired by vintage pin‑ups, metal aesthetics, and tattoo‑style design. Classically trained in mixed‑media illustration and oil painting, she later taught herself digital art, a blend that gives her work its signature color‑rich, traditionally-rooted feel.
 

Her art appears at furry cons across the US where she sells apparel, home goods, and custom commissions; she also creates artwork for craft breweries, bringing her retro‑meets‑feral style into the world of beer.
 

When she’s not drawing, Melde is usually traveling, hanging out with her cats, enjoying craft beer, or getting progressively more angry about finding every Korok in ToTK.
