Mel Williamson

Oil Painter

Salt Spring Island painter Mel Williamson creates intimate, gesture-driven oil paintings where figures and forms seem to emerge from shifting light. Working without preliminary drawing, she uses large brushes and palette knives to carve out essential shapes, celebrating the tactile nature of oil paint. Formerly a graphic designer, she now paints full-time, focusing on honest, fleeting moments and the emotional truth within everyday gestures.
