Handmade Ceramics
A midcoast Maine artist working from my c. 1800 cottage studio amidst gardens & an old orchard.
Original Paintings
Working primarily in pastel and oil, I'm focused on wild life, still life, and botanicals, often gathering inspiration for my botanical work from my own gardens.
"Mel's work draws from the northern woods, the landscape and the light, and from centuries of her Nordic ancestry. Whether painting or sculpting, she works in the long tradition of making things with care, skill, and purpose, creating one of a kind heirloom pieces made to be lived with and, one day, passed down."
Fine Art Ceramics
A collection of fine art ceramic pieces made by hand slowly and intentionally with time honored techniques and a deep connection to nature. Each one of a kind piece is designed, sculpted, and fired in my studio in Maine.
