DAVID MELLOWS<br />
June 9 - <strong>September</strong> 30<br />
Having this opportunity to hang in a large<br />
room with a vast wall is perfect to bring out<br />
some of the large works by David Mellows<br />
of the past decade. Local sourced images<br />
are alongside those of travels, interstate and<br />
international.<br />
The painting technique remains from that<br />
evolved after attaining a Diploma in Art &<br />
Design, <strong>Print</strong>making Major, at Midland TAFE<br />
in WA. That was stabilized through being able<br />
to hang in commercial galleries in Melbourne<br />
after moving to Victoria in 2000. The CV of<br />
regional art prizes was further enhanced<br />
and good sales meant the product spread<br />
about Melbourne, Victoria, interstate and<br />
overseas. The scale of work and sales was<br />
complete with small to the panoramic and<br />
multi-panelled works the like included in this<br />
showing.<br />
Themes also evolved through the decade<br />
of success in Melbourne and that is well<br />
rep<strong>res</strong>ented here also. Most are from what<br />
is seen with the enhancement or diminution<br />
of the artists’ licence. The crowdscenes are<br />
purely invention even though many have<br />
claimed knowledge of some characters. In<br />
this is the example most appreciated by the<br />
artist. When the viewers tell their own story as<br />
told in the painting.<br />
David Mellows now lives in C<strong>res</strong>wick and<br />
though winters can be cool, the colours of the<br />
seasons change are enjoyed.<br />
