Artwork Description

I love watching waves, the way they slowly swell and crash, and flow into shore. It's such a calming and soothing sound. In this painting I was drawn to the shapes made in the waves that carried the sand into shore.

Melissa is a Melbourne based artist best known for her large landscapes and bold still lifes.

She paints with oils on canvas using nature and personal experiences as her inspiration. These observations are brought to life in her studio, a converted horse stable which overlooks a magnificent oak tree.

Melissa’s passion for painting began in her mid teens, and developed when she majored in art at teachers college. She has continued since with tuition from a local artist and mentor.

Melissa’s art has developed into a contemporary style. Her work is not a just a representation of what she observes, but rather an expression of it, and her paintings will take you on a journey through her moody and colorful world.

Melissa has participated in group and solo exhibitions. She is a member of the Victorian Artists Society, a Bluethumb finalist in 2022, and a selected participant in the Banyule Council Open Studios program. Her work is held in a variety of collections including the Epworth Healthcare Art Collection, Melbourne Magistrate's Court, and private collections in Australia and the UK.
