About Mel Williamson

Mel Williamson returned to painting after a career in design, winning “Best Work on Canvas”  in her first juried show at the Sidney Fine Art Show in 2014.  Further awards and success have encouraged her to pursue oil painting full-time from her studio on Salt Spring Island.

Gestures and light conditions fascinate Mel: People at work, unaware of being observed, flat hazy daylight, the posture of animals, the fluorescence of hardware stores. She enjoys the physicality of painting and drawing, after years of design work on a computer. Her paintings are a way of being with the material; the tactile and slippery character of oil paint is celebrated in the work. She trusts the paint to lead the way—with no drawing or outline before beginning, and using a large brush or a palette knife. During the process, the subjects emerge from the canvas, like sculptures from a block of stone. The background remains connected to the forms, only partially releasing them, which creates tension and animation. Her main interest lies in figures, and in capturing and elevating the truth expressed in small, humble moments.
