Alma
de la Melena Cox grew up traveling between San Francisco, where she was
born, Mexico and Peru. This flavored her experience with rich and vibrant
color. Her parents' appreciation for Hispanic architecture and artwork
imbued her soul with a passion for beauty and color. Her travels to Europe
at a young age instilled a love of diverse cultures and experiences that
have shaped her artistic point of view.
Her artistic path began in fiber art where her award-winning quilts, quite by accident, led her to pursue painting. Six years ago, she developed her signature, Telamadera Fusion, merging her two passions, painting and fabric. Her work is inspired by an inner landscape of memories, experiences and feelings, as well as the natural world. Alma lives in Sisters, Oregon with her husband, Mike, and their two children. |
