Nathan Mellott is an American representative and symbolist painter. He is self taught.
​
Nathan was raised in an itinerant military officer's family. Restlessness led him to the pencil and page early on. Born in the heart of the Louisiana Bayou he was always on the road and has since lived in New York, Los Angeles, Austin, London, Hawaii, Taipei, Daegu, Florence, Prague and a dozen smaller locales.
​
Mellott’s paintings are vibrantly colored and continuously experimental ñ oscillating between mediums and bouts of exacting precision and lively expressionism. He is also a sculptor, muralist, writer, and nationally published portrait photographer. His paintings have appeared three times for review in American Art Collector Magazine, and also Bat City Review 12 by the University of Austin Press.
