Melanie Cambridge – About the Artist

 

 

Keen on art from childhood, Melanie has painted outdoors from life for most of her artistic career, strongly believing that this is the key to becoming a successful landscape painter. Most of her work is based on light and colour, capturing the essence of a location rather than every last detail. In order to remain fresh as an art tutor, Melanie feels it is important to retain her main role as a landscape painter developing her own work and ideas and aims to take part in several exhibitions each year in order to progress her own work.

For 2011, Melanie is running painting breaks, to Cornwall and North Essex as well as teaching at Earnley Concourse near Chichester.  She is also taking part in the Surrey Artists Open Studios in June for the first time. Full details of all her art activities can be found on her website

Melanie is a founder member of the Maritime Art Group, a professional associate of the SAA and an exhibiting member of the Guilford Art Society.
