Mellissa is an award winning artist who thrives on the process of painting. “Whilst painting I work in many layers, and have a marvellous time slapping paint on, spraying, dripping and generally getting immersed in the act of painting. Only then will I settle down and start to tame the work into an image I am happy with”.

As Mellissa says "the process of painting is joy for me. Florals and landscapes are all around us and with them I never have to struggle for inspiration. I invite the viewer into my world to see contemporary scenes in rich optical mixes of brushstroke and hue. I love bringing into being images that inspire me. I love seeing my work on the wall - both in exhibitions and in the places they will eventually call home".
