Brother Melvin Meyer, S.M. started teaching art at Central Catholic High School in San Antonio, Texas, in the 1950's and for a time at Chaminade Prep and McBride High. He finished at McBride in ‘57 and then went to Europe for a year to study art, covering 14,000 miles in nine countries on a motor scooter. As a talented young artist, he was selected to work with “Yoki” Aebischer in Fribourg, Switzerland and Jacques le Chevallier in Paris, France during 1958. In 1960, he earned his Master's degree at the University of Notre Dame, studying under internationally renowned artists Ivan Mestrovic and Jean Charlot. Brother Mel’s work not only reflects numerous travels, but also an ever-expanding ability to create art in a variety of media.
