23.01.2022 Good Morning Monday! Does anyone else feel the renewed energy of the promise of a new week or maybe just a new day? Try not to think about busy schedules Here is a work in progress that must be finished ASAP despite Merlin trying to get me to go for a walk.... #workinprogress #merlinthedalmation #mondayinthestudio

22.01.2022 The Spring Exhibition is now available to view online. This is one exhibition I would be happy if nobody visited because it would mean no children in hospital. But there are, and I am delighted to have my work on the walls in this exhibition for patients, parents and staff to enjoy.

22.01.2022 Look at this fabulous reproduction of my painting. The guys from @cie_elledigital have done an amazing job with both the scan and the print. If you want to check it out - @koalahealthclinic will be open for business from next month for all your beauty and relaxation needs. #mural #wallpaper #largescaleprint @ Koala Health Clinic

21.01.2022 I am looking forward to having my paintings spend some time here - delivery is next week. If you would like a catalogue (as works will be for sale and a percentage goes to the foundation), let me know.

20.01.2022 Was determined to finish this one while my trip outback was fresh in my mind. Particularly pointilistic. Wildflowers Out Back 61cmsq #acryliconcanvas #mellissareaddevine #wildflowers

19.01.2022 Artwork always belongs to the artist (unless rights officially sold or gifted) and not paying them for use of image is a crime

17.01.2022 When my energy level is flagging as I work on a painting, I start a new one. Or at least gesso a canvas. Tally today: Worked on: 3 Started: 2... Gessoed: 5 Finished:...0. Ah well I have a good work out in the studio. #artiststudio #whatsontheeasel #workinprogress

15.01.2022 Pure joy! When a happy owner sends me a picture of one of my works in its new home. And so beautifully styled! This painting was recently purchased from my last exhibition at @humblehouseart - the show is still available to view and purchase from online for the next few weeks. #interior #mellissareaddevine #beyondtheterritorywall

14.01.2022 Just when I think landscapes are my favourite genre, I see one of my floral paintings and am conflicted.

Her work has evolved to a macropointilist style, celebrating shape, colour and brushstrokes of contemporary impressionism. These idiosyncratic characteristics come together to create pieces that are sought after by both Australian international collectors alike. .

10.01.2022 Here’s a painting that I thought I’d finished on the last day of 2020. Instead finished on the first day of 2021.

01.01.2022 How are you today? Do you have something nice planned? As I head off to church it occurred to me that there are people doing it tough, shut in homes, hotels, hospitals etc. and don’t have the freedom to enjoy such a beautiful spring (or autumn) day. I hope you find some sunshine of sorts. Hang on in there Living on the Edge 30cmx30cm... Available if interested. #sunshine #bestrong #hangon #livingontheedge
