Melanie has a well deserved and established reputation for
her representation of equine and equestrian subjects.
Much of her equestrian work focuses on racing and polo
events and conveys a strong sense of occasion. Informed by
Melanie's intimate knowledge of her subject, they capture an
authentic sense of the horses' conformation, vitality and
spirit and reveal the unique dynamic between horse and
rider.
Melanie is well known for her depiction of racing life, a
longstanding source inspiration. She is often seen
sketching at local point to point and race meetings, and at
the polo at Cirencester Park.
In
2014/15 Melanie is presented by AIR as Artist in Residence
at Charlie Longsdon Racing, in Oxfordshire.
Melanie accepts commissions for equestrian work and equine
portraits. A small number of limited edition prints of her
equestrian work are occasionally made available, and she has
recently launched a range of cards.
