Melanie is a ceramicist and sculptor based in Hampshire. Her work is often inspired by the sea, waves and aquatic plant life from a deep love of Cornwall first established as a child when Melanie spent each summer with her Grandparents on the Roseland Peninsula.
She says of her work: "Porcelain is capricious; it comes alive in my hands. They merely guide the process. Even when the piece is complete, the process is not yet finished as the clay carries on living in the kiln. It is only when it is totally cold, do we know that the work has settled into its final version. My job is to nurture this evolution through some very precarious stages. I can only relax once it is on a plinth!"
Melanie's work can be found in private collections in Switzerland, Denmark, France, Austria, as well as the UK. Her portraits have been selected on numerous occasions for the Society of Portrait Sculptors' FACE exhibitions, as well as the Royal Geographical Society (Sir Ranulph Fiennes), and Messrs C Hoare & Co (Henry Hoare, former Chairman of the bank).
