Mellissa Read-Devine
Resume
Mellissa is an English artist, who lives in rural Sydney overlooking the Hawkesbury River. Since the 90s, she has continuously studied and practised painting and printmaking, honing her art often inspired by the natural landscape.
Mellissa’s style is distinctive with her electric palette and layered application of brush strokes. Her paintings have evolved into her own “macropointilist” style celebrating the shape, colour and brushstroke of contemporary impressionism.
She has been the finalist in many prestigious art prizes including Paddington Art Prize, Stanthorpe Art Prize, Fishers Ghost, Blacktown Art Prize and Hawkesbury Art Prize, and is included in public collections around Australia and USA.
A Fellow of the Royal Art Society of NSW and a founding member of the Hawkesbury Artisans Trail, Mellissa continues to work promoting creativity in the local community and works as artist, tutor, and illustrator.
