Melissa Martin is an Australian artist based in Uraidla, SA on Kaurna and Peramangk country. She holds distinctions in Painting Methods, Drawing and Mixed Media and Art History from LaTrobe College of Art & Design, Victoria.From a young age Melissa has sought out creativity as an intrinsic part of her. After having children, this creativity came to the forefront. Melissa is interested in the way people interact with each other and the world around them. Observing and sketching these moments to take back to the studio.The essence of these sketches then form abstracted sculptural paintings, with layers and texture representing the complexity that lies behind each observation.Using mixed media with a bias to oil paint, each piece created, is slow and thoughtful, with focus on the process.

‘Grounded’ is a collection inspired by living simply. Each piece made up of both seen and unseen decisions to disconnect from the fast pace of our world. The process of building the sculptured layers and texture, predominantly using oil paints, takes patience and an acceptance of imperfection. In a way, mimicking the complexity of thought it takes to actively simplify.The earthy tones and organic form finish each painting, capturing the spirit and slowly revealing the intention of the work.
