Hello - I'm Melanie and I make limited edition lino prints of dancing hares, otters, naughty dogs, swarms of bees and favourite plants from my studio in Bristol.
I enjoy the challenge of translating a drawing into lino and also the physical process of carving and hand burnishing. I am constantly challenging myself with the medium, in terms of both intricate lino blocks to cut and also the size and scale of lino blocks to hand burnish.
I create artworks that share a little blast of joy and humour and tell stories and ask questions - usually "what is going on?"
I sell my lino prints online and in galleries and have sent them off to new homes around the world...my online shop is HERE and a list of some of my current stockists is HERE
Sometimes I teach a workshop, take on a commission or licence images so get in touch if any of these things are what you need.
