About Me
Hello!
I'm Melissa, I'm an artist & illustrator working in Bristol, UK.
I am a traditional artist working primarily in Aquarelle and Oil paints. I love process of mixing paint and working images the analogue way, creating stories within my images both from the imagination and from those special characters who feature in our everyday lives.
This website is the beginning of my online atelier and I will be adding to it as my collection grows.
My Story
I have been creating art my whole life but it is certainly within the last 10 years that my work has begun to reach out to others.
I have been sharing snippets of my art online since 2017, and my work grown through a mix of local gallery exhibitions, private commissions, and collaboration work.
In 2024 I illustrated and designed the book cover for Molly Monday's Cupcakes by author Anne Keens.
Much of my original work has lived in the realms of fantasy and surrealism and the stories of an inner landscape. I have a passion for storytelling in its many forms and will be expanding my atelier to include many more offerings in the future.
