ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Maps Of Unusual Landscapes are inspired by my late night and early morning walks since the beginning of the pandemic. I’d often find myself switching direction or turning around in an attempt to avoid other people. Normally, my dog and I meander through the neighborhood catching up on everyone’s news and saying hello to friends. The strange reality of avoiding other humans has changed the landscape for me. Layering texture, colour, and intuitive marks, Melissa McGill builds abstract worlds on raw canvas and paper. Her work is inspired by literature, the natural world and life events. A joy of the medium of painting is reflected in her exploration of technique and the embrace of new palettes and forms.

Delivery Time:

Layering texture and colour, wash and mark, paint and canvas evolve into something new. Reflecting the joy of movement, my process involves my whole body, large strokes of colour poured or scraped across the canvas punctuated with graphic lines of pastel, graphite and chalk to guide the eye and balance the composition. Finding inspiration in the natural world, I build up my paintings in a very organic way. Working primarily with acrylic paints allows me to work intuitively. After 15 years of interpreting other peoples ideas as a commercial illustrator, painting is a joyful interpretation of my life experience. My work is in collections in the United States and Europe Current Representation: R.Cline Arts, Las Vegas, NV Brett Wesley Contemporary, Las Vegas, NV Art Dimensions, Sherman Oaks, CA
