MELANIE BREAR
About the Artist

Melanie Brear is a Glastonbury based artist and illustrator of spiritual, visionary and fantasy art. She was born in Bradford, UK in 1970. Melanie comes from a diverse background - and cites some of the many places she has lived as influencing her work, which range from Edinburgh to Exmoor! Her first occupation was as a self-employed picture framer, but later she found her true calling as an artist. Since then she has self-trained and taught herself traditional oil painting techniques.
Her interests are in the esoteric, spirituality, Jungian psychology and healing. Dreams and the hypnagogic state both play a part in facilitating her creative process. Some of her art is inspired by the imagination – where she fuses fantastic and mythical elements into a realistic style.
Melanie has taken part in a joint National Trust exhibition at East Riddlesden Hall in West Yorkshire and her most recent solo exhibition was at Glastonbury Galleries, Glastonbury, UK in 2016.

PLEASE NOTE:
We are currently rebuilding our website with a new theme - so temporarily this site is functional, but a construction zone.
Headers, background and certain special new functions will be built in, respectively changed. Additionally, most Slide Shows used to be embedded from our Private Social Network on Ning. Since Ning discontinued Flash some time ago, the space where the embedded slide shows supposed to be is blank!
We are working to fix this as well, but with over 500 pages for artists alone, this will take time.
