Rod Melotte Images
The exhibit includes unusual local cityscapes of Madison and Columbus, pastoral scenes with cows, winter sleighing in Columbus, striking photos of cone flowers, and even Lambeau Field! It is truly a tribute to Wisconsin!
Rod Melotte grew up in Fort Atkinson, moved to Madison and now calls Columbus Wisconsin his home. He has had a camera in his hands most of his life but not until recently has he started to show off his work.
In the past three years Rod as started to attend more and more art fairs and his work can be seen hanging in quite a few businesses and galleries around Wisconsin. 
He prefers to call his work images as they begin as a photograph and then through the use of his digital darkroom he will take an ordinary photo and create the extraordinary image. “I try to recreate what my minds eye was seeing through the view finder. I want to experience that feeling I had and you can’t do that with normal photography”.
Rods subjects are all over the map from rural scenes to the city, from flowers to metal structures “There are so many things we see and take for granted every day and you really have to stop, slow down and appreciate the world. There really is beauty everywhere”.
Sometimes ultra realistic, sometimes surrealistic and even diving into impressionistic, Rods world is certainly not ordinary and it’s never boring!
