Spks Wrld Presents: The Woman Behind The Brush with Melissa Isaakov
The Woman Behind The Brush
As a kid I’ve always been into to art. I’m very big on people expressing themselves and bringing their visions to life through different forms of art. Recently I’ve come across one of the most gifted artists I’ve ever met. Melissa Isaakov has been shaking up the art world with every one of her creations.
You can see the love and passion in her work, the paintings are really vivid and fascinating. I had a chance over the weekend to ask Ms. Isaakov a few questions so we can get to know the women behind the brush.
1. Name and where you are from?
My name is Melissa Isaakov and I am a Russian-Jewish artist born and raised in Toronto, Canada.
2. At what age did you notice you had a passion for art? And what inspired you?
I've had a passion for art since early childhood. In grade school, I would be happiest when we worked on art projects. Both of my parents worked a lot so I would always ask them to buy me art supplies to keep me busy.
3. Which of your pieces is your favorite?
My favorite pieces have to be the ones that made a significant impact. My Tupac and Nelson Mandela paintings were purchased by pro soccer player Gregory Vanderweil & pro basketball player Anthony Bennet, and half of the proceeds were donated to R&M Book & Sneaker Drive, an annual humanitarian trip to Ghana. My grey Nipsey Hussle piece was purchased by Emory Jones of Roc Nation and Planes, who was close friends and business partners with the late legend.
There are many other custom pieces that I was honored to make and fundraisers that I was proud to be a part of. Nothing is more rewarding than making piece that has a significant impact on another person’s life and I’m grateful for any opportunity to do that.
4. What advice would you give to the young and upcoming artists in the world?
The best advice I could give is that, even though you're pursuing your passion, turning it into a career is not always going to be easy and enjoyable. You have to learn to be disciplined if you want to reach your goals. You must educate yourself in other areas such as business & marketing, while working on your craft. There will always be other amazing artists out there, but always remember: hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
5. Where can the people follow you and support?
You can support my work and follow me on Instagram: @melissaisaakov and Facebook @ArtByMelissaIsaakov
We ask that everyone go follow and support Ms. Isaakov through her journey of greatness. You will be seeing her work on a wall near you.

“A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment. I do believe that you should publish more on this issue, it may not be a taboo matter but generally people do not speak about these subjects. To the next! Kind regards!!”
