Inspired by the beauty and grace of birds and beasts.
Melissa has been a local resident of Puhoi for almost eight years. She originally learnt to paint with oils during during her A Level Art Painting course at school in Sussex in the UK. Melissa had not painted since until early retirement from corporate life gave her the time and opportunity to take up an art again – a gap of over forty years. In 2017.
Melissa enrolled in her first class at Estuary Art Centre in Orewa, reawakening her love and passion for painting, now with acrylic paints. Earlier this year, Melissa was fortunate to be awarded the Estuary Arts Centre Student Merit Award for my Garden Tui painting in acrylics. She has subsequently sold numerous artworks and completed a number of commissions.
Melissa's paintings are predominantly inspired by nature and I enjoy capturing as much detail as I can to obtain a realistic life-like result.
