Mel creates from the quiet spaces between life's beautiful chaos, where art becomes both peace and purpose.

Her creative journey began sitting in her grandmother's art studio as a child, igniting a passion for all things creative. Her professional path began behind the camera as a photographer capturing light and story, then evolved into building her own renovation and interior design company. She navigated the tender complexities of motherhood while facing life's most profound teachers - those uninvited guests that arrive to reshape everything we thought we knew.

Through every unexpected turn and mystical mess of being human, creativity has remained her loyal companion.

Working in pencil, watercolour, ink and clay, Mel's art emerges from solitude and silence — seasoned by ocean air, inspired by music's rhythms, and drawn from nature's endless palette. Her work is shaped by a quiet truth: we are not defined by our stories, but by how we transform them into something beautiful.

This is where vulnerability meets pigment, where courage becomes an invitation to embrace our perfectly imperfect humanness, and where self-expression unfolds one delicate layer at a time.
