Melissa Scott-Miller NEAC RBA RP

Melissa Scott Miller

Melissa Scott-Miller paints mainly urban landscapes, specialising in London where she was born and still lives. She also paints interiors and portraits of people in their surroundings. She is fascinated by light and pattern and texture, particularly on bricks and slates of London buildings and the flora and fauna found in city gardens and parks.She is fascinated in detail and in the effects of nature on man-made structures, but also wishes to portray an emotional relationship she has with London's streets, where she has lived as a child, an artist and a mother and a dog owner. She likes to concentrate very deeply and feels that she is walking on a tightrope when she works.
