Mella Kelly - About & Contact

Mella Kelly expressively tells a story, transports and captivates. In impasto acrylic strokes and oil landscapes, in her delicate watercolours and vibrant collage, she captures the paradox of both the human form and nature’s wildness: the interweaving of dark and light, solemnity and joy, the evocative and provocative.

After a sabbatical exploring the world without brushes, she has now returned to the studio—soulfully stirred, paint in flow, art back on show.

Curiosity and exploration of the world–people, places, philosophy and creative expression–keeps Mel’s heart beating, her daily practice to immerse in all elements of the arts. Whether it is developing a painting, mastering a piece of writing, cultivating community or delving deep into conversation, she welcomes the opportunity for expression and invites others to share their own view of life, the arts and offering their gifts to others.

Do get in touch…for commissions, to share your reflections on Mella’s pieces, to connect and, perhaps, collaborate on projects. Opportunities are endless (to borrow from Voltaire) in this best of all possible worlds.
