Melanie, that snow painting was stunning. It made we take a breath. I never thought of adding brights underneath but you’re so right. Snow doesn’t have to cover the ground completely.

Lovely Melanie, would love to see you do more of the actual painting. Congratulations

Beautiful paintings, I love the movement that you put in them, I too am an artist and I love painting coastal scenes, hope you sell all of them, best wishes to you and thanks for sharing them. You really are a good artist.😊

Fantastic Mel. Love your work. So fresh and lively.

You are amazing at teaching as well as creating beautiful work. Please share more if you can. xx

I love it but you sure you didn’t sacrifice a sheep. Never seen you use so much red, looked like a blood bath initially.

I did enjoy watching you and seeing your world. It looks pretty cold!!! So interesting to see how you arrive at a composition. Those beautiful photos mean you’ve been to lots of lovely spots and your eyes are wide open for inspiration. Thanks for the peek into your arty life. 😍

Wednesday was a big surprise! You - Stuck? A break of your routine obviously gets into your head a lot. Mind full of appointments and new nieces. Hope it doesn't happen too often and congrats for getting unstuck. I can't believe the amount of ink you use! Remarkable.

Tuesday. I know it was time lapse but the amount of movement and energy that you put into your paintings is astounding. You paint in different positions, you move things around the studio, you use electric power a lot, for light and drying and warmth, all of that must get absorbed into the finished painting to show the final superb results that you create. Compared to me, if the lights right, and it's warm enough, I sit and paint, if I'm in the mood for it. That drabness comes through in my work! I wish I had your energy, skill and imagination. Well Done.

You live in such a wonderful environment Melanie, surrounded by nature and being immersed in your interests show us where your passion comes from. Walking a dog in the wilds, through forest, beside river can be an eye-opening experience too - they get everywhere and find such different places. I like the video a lot. The process you follow becomes clear and I guess it's taken you a long time to get there. The idea that you spend so much time thinking about the structure of your paintings, have multiple copies in your head!, I find is amazing. Painting boards and canvasses in advance is sensible but something I haven't considered - I just start from scratch on one thing and work 'til it's done, which can be an hour, or days. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos and be opened up to more of your methods and unlimited talent. All the Best, Doug.

Beautiful impact as you walk into your studio and see the painting. Awesome.

Thanks Mel. Your vidz are always informative and fun to watch. I invariably get something special out of each one.I wish you had time for more and look forward to a new online workshop.

Oh WOW......as usual.

Wow so mesmerising took me 5 sec to process what I was looking at 1st😍

:0 prettyyy maybe add some music in too to fit the vibe :)

Very atmospheric, stunning, do you work in acrylic or oil?

You seascapes are always stunning, Mel.

Hi Mel. I love watching and rewatching your videos. There are always tips on techniques and your thinking that I notice .

All so stunning

Very enjoyable and as usual, very inspiring, thank you

Mel teaches how to follow your own creativity, not someone elses. Brilliant course and I wish Mel had more online courses. She is inspirational.

I'd love one Mel! Thanks 😊

Thank you, that’s is very inspiring x

Can you explain why you use colouraid cards.

Wonderful artist. Best to invest early in Mel C-H

I really like this one..

Those are so pretty 🙂

I love this idea. Are these color swatches that you painted yourself? This is brilliant, bringing them with you so you can pull them out and compare to teal life.

This was an amazing course. I had so much fun playing and extending my skills and ideas I just cannot stop. I wish you had more online courses. I live in Oz and sadly can't attend workshops in person.

Ooh I loved this! Sometimes I sit and feel a bit lost of what to do next but I always find something 🤣

Amazing...

Thanks again Mel - more beautiful pieces with such energy. Stunning

They are all stunning. So sparkling and alive. Wish I could buy them ALL. Thanks Mel - give us more videos please x

Hello Melanie, I just discovered you this morning.. Lovely to meet you! I am from Montreal, Canada and my question is: once you have done an exciting collage from your sketch book... how do you transat it on a canvas? Thank you for your answer. I look forward to it! Lucie

Oh my goodness Mel, absolutely breathtakingly stunning 🤩 as usual 👌 And ‘Borne my breath away’ does exactly that!!!

I love the way you think and work your way through your paintings. I always have a very intense relationship with my work that involves discussions, arguments, humour and sometimes tears. The painting always wins the argument BTW. Your paintings are beautiful and evocative.

Absolutely!!! ❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰

WOW thank you Mel x

Beautiful

Brilliant, loving 🥰 your latest paintings 👏👏👏 and the paint review was so helpful, thank you 😊👍

Oh wow 🤩 love ❤️ the cerulean blue sky and sea, Mel 👍 Stunning as always! 👏👏👏

I love this, you've got me im signing up..Your a fantastic teacher Mel...

The creative process: I so get that!
